Re: not an amanda tape
I had the same problem. Before you can use a tape with amanda you have to label it with amlabel Look on the man page to know all the option.

problem with chg-zd-mtx
Hi, I'm trying to setup amanda on my sol 8 server, and I'm getting some problem with chg-zd-mtx, but I have no problem to play with my tape changer with mtx, so here is what I get (as user amanda I have to setup the sticky bit on mtx to make it work ?!??!, wierd no ?): bash-2.05$ mtx -f /dev/rmt/1 status Storage Changer /dev/rmt/1:1 Drives, 6 Slots ( 0 Import/Export ) Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 1 Loaded) Storage Element 1:Empty Storage Element 2:Full Storage Element 3:Full Storage Element 4:Full Storage Element 5:Full Storage Element 6:Full and when I do a amcheck: bash-2.05$ amcheck csd Amanda Tape Server Host Check - Holding disk /opt/etc/amanda/dump: 2627040 KB disk space available, that's plenty amcheck-server: could not get changer info: test: argument expected Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check Client check: 2 hosts checked in 0.217 seconds, 0 problems found (brought to you by Amanda 2.4.2p2) here is the amchecklog on /tmp/amanda: /tmp/amanda/amcheck.20020523092248.debug :: amcheck: debug 1 pid 5074 ruid 1003 euid 0 start time Thu May 23 09:22:48 2002 amcheck: dgram_bind: socket bound to 0.0.0.0.666 changer: got exit: 1 str: /usr/local/libexec/chg-zd-mtx: test: argument expected could not get changer info: test: argument expected amcheck-server: pid 5075 finish time Thu May 23 09:22:49 2002 amcheck: pid 5074 finish time Thu May 23 09:22:49 2002 and If I look inside the chg-zd-mtx, it's look for the drive by default (0 I think) so How can I make it work with the drive I have define in amanda.conf, the /dev/rmt/1 for me.

Two problem: cannot find libraray readline and GNUTAR not find !?!
Hi guys, I'm getting my amanda server working, but I'm still having some probleme: First I try to do a compilation on a Solaris 8 server, and it can't find the library readline, here is what I get when I do a configure: . . . checking for readline.h... yes checking for readline/history.h... yes checking for readline/readline.h... yes . . . checking for readline in -lreadline... no configure: warning: *** No readline library, no history and command line editing in amrecover! . . and in the config.site I have: INCLUDE_DIRS=/opt/include /opt/include/readline LIBRARY_DIRS=/opt/lib And I have the realine.so in /opt/lib: libreadline.a libreadline.so libreadline.so.4 Is amanda looking for: readline.a readline.so readline.so4 Instead of libreadline.* ? The other thing is on my server when I use amcheck csd orion:/opt/etc/amanda#amcheck csd Amanda Tape Server Host Check - Holding disk /opt/etc/amanda/dump: 2627996 KB disk space available, that's plenty amcheck-server: could not get changer info: Request Sense: Long Report=yes Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check ERROR: orion.lsn.ca-indosuez.com: [GNUTAR program not available] Client check: 1 host checked in 0.337 seconds, 1 problem found (brought to you by Amanda 2.4.2p2) Why it can find GNUTAR I have define in my config.site, so dosen't it should use this one ? GNUTAR=/usr/local/bin/tar And where dose it look for the changer information that the server is complaining ?
