Re: Dumpcycle 0 doesn't do just full backups of DLEs
You can increase runtapes, ... maxdumpsize is not set in my amanda.conf > ... or set maxdumpsize if you want to allow amanda to do more backup than the tape space (useful with a lot of holdingdisk). But e.g. last month, amanda (3.3.0) filled 5 tapes (runtapes was set to 5) and put the rest into the holdingdisk, so I could flush it later: >> These dumps were to tapes KAS076, KAS047, KAS051, KAS052, KAS050. >> Not using all tapes because 5 tapes filled; runtapes=5 does not allow >> additional tapes. >> There are 186067M of dumps left in the holding disk. >> Run amflush to flush them to tape. Amanda dumped all with level 0 and what could not put to tape, was left in the holdingdisk. -- Marc Muehlfeld (IT-Leiter) Zentrum fuer Humangenetik und Laboratoriumsmedizin Dr. Klein und Dr. Rost Lochhamer Str. 29 - D-82152 Martinsried Telefon: +49(0)89/895578-0 - Fax: +49(0)89/895578-780 http://www.medizinische-genetik.de

This value sets the default for all dumptypes so must appear in amanda.conf before any dumptypes are defined. "dumpcycle" just appears once in my amanda.conf (global, not in a dumptype section) and this config is unchanged since month. And it worked for years now. That's what's confusing me. -- Marc Muehlfeld (IT-Leiter) Zentrum fuer Humangenetik und Laboratoriumsmedizin Dr. Klein und Dr. Rost Lochhamer Str. 29 - D-82152 Martinsried Telefon: +49(0)89/895578-0 - Fax: +49(0)89/895578-780 http://www.medizinische-genetik.de
Dumpcycle 0 doesn't do just full backups of DLEs
Hi,
we have one set with "dumpcycle 0" for monthly off-site backups that was
running fine for a long time.
Last weekend it was the first time, that amanda (3.3.0) decided not to do
level-0-only for this set.
Many DLEs were just dumped in level 1:
> planner: nucleus.mr.lfmg.de /BACKUP 20110903210001 0 "[dumps too big, 1320
KB, full dump delayed]"
> planner: genome.mr.lfmg.de /BACKUP 20110903210001 0 "[dumps too big, 2916
KB, full dump delayed]"
There were enough usable tapes in the library (and if not, amanda left the
rest in the holdingdisk in the past). Also the holdingdisk is having 2TB free
space (what is enough to hold almost the whole backup).
Any idea what could be wrong and how can I really force amanda to do only
level-0 ("dumpcycle 0" doesn't seem to be enough).
Regards,
Marc

Backup the same data to two vTapes
Hello, currently I backup to a storage system and copy it to a second one to ensure, that if it breaks, I still have my vTapes on the second one. Is it possible to configure Amanda to write backuped data to two vTape-"Libraries" at the same time (the same data to two vTapes)?

Re: How do send dumped DLEs to tape earlier?

Re: How do send dumped DLEs to tape earlier?
Jon LaBadie schrieb: > Not certain I understand the question(s). What I mean: When amanda is working here, first a lot of the DLEs that have been dumped are put on the holding disk first, while amanda is dumping other DLEs. Later amanda is putting them to tape. Why not earlier? In my amstatus output you can see, that 95 of 121 DLEs had already been dumped. 1 of the 95 was allready put to tape. The other 94 DLEs are still in the holdingdisk at the time I grabbed this output. Later they are all send to tape. And what I want is, that amanda put DLEs to tape, when the dump to the holdingdisk is finished. Currently this waste time, because many DLEs are collected at the holding disk and and the taper is idle. The whole backup could be finished earlier, if this delay wouldn't be there. When I directly dump to tape, only one DLE can be backuped at the same time. Regards, Marc

If not, why would I want to backup temporary files that applications recreate/regenerate after they have been restored? IGNORE just ignores the output for the report and prevents making the state "STRANGE". Everything that could be backuped, is on tape. But what couldn't because of any reason that isn't on tape and can't, of course, not be restored. But the same is if you exclude something. How you want to restore anything that isn't on tape (because it was excluded)? Unfortunately I use Debian Lenny and it still uses 2.5.2, so I can't define my own applications. Compile it by yourself or use a rpm, or deb in your case, for installation.

On clients that have just the check_mk agent, you have to create this folder and the mrpe.cfg file by yourself. Thre is an asterisk plugin already on myserverip ,i wanted to use that one, is there any easier to monitor Asterisk using check_mk ? Depending on the plugin you have, you have to decite from where it has to be executed. If it's a plugin that checks something local (like processes, existence of files,...) you have to put it on the client. If it's something that does a remote check (like checking if a port is open or a webpage can be reached,...) the plugin is executed from the nagios host, because you want to check if the service is available over network. Of course you can execute remote checks on other hosts too (e. g. if you want to check if a MySQL login is possible from host A to host B, you put the plugin to Host A and execute it via MRPE).

3.2.0: Bug with German umlauts
Hello, I reported this problem for 2.5.1p2 and it was fixed by Jean-Louis. It came back in 3.1.1, where I got a patch from Dustin which fixed it for restoring on the server, but not when restoring on the client. But he said it was to late to add the patch to 3.1.2. Today I upgraded to 3.2.0 and it's still broken. amrecover shows files with umlauts: 2010-10-22-09-32-21 "M\\303\\266gliche Zusatzkosten f\\303\\274r QM-Projekt.odt" The only way to recover is adding the file with wildcards (like 'add M*gliche*'), but makes recovering an annoyning job. I hope, there is a way to finally fix this soon again (like in 2.5.1p2 some years ago). Thanks.

What are the things to be taken care of while upgrading the amanda server

Have a look at the changelog:

The only two changes I made was changing my chg-compat:chg-zd-mtx config
define changer "LTO3_Changer" {
tpchanger "chg-compat:chg-zd-mtx"
changerfile "/etc/amanda/KAS/chg-zd-mtx.conf"
changerdev "/dev/changer"
tapedev "tape:/dev/tape"

to chg-robot
define changer "LTO3_Changer" {
tpchanger "chg-robot:/dev/changer"
changerfile "/etc/amanda/KAS/chg-zd-mtx-state"
property"tape-device" "0=tape:/dev/tape"
property"eject-before-unload" "no"
property"use-slots" "1-18"
property"load-poll" "20 s poll 15 s until 120 s"
}
because it's deprecated. And Second: amandapass moved:
The default amandapass file for the amsamba application is
$CONFIG_DIR/amandapass, but it is /etc/amandapass for program GNUTAR. Don't
forget to move the file if you switch to the amsamba application.
Will the backup that has already taken using the previous version work with
the newer one??
You can restore with 3.1.1 backups made with older version. Also you don't
have to update your clients (here I have 3.1.1 on the server and 2.6.1p2 and
on some 2.4.4p1 on client side). I also had checked to do a restore over the
network from a 3.1.1 server using a 2.6.1p2 client. Everything fine.
Please help me with safe procedures. The amanda server is running in RHEL5
But I found 2 bugs in 3.1.1:
1.) amrecover can't work with files/directories containing german umlauts
(don't know if other characters than english ones make problems too).
2.) amandapass: The columns can only be separated by one space/tab not more!
For both bugs Dustin wrote patches. I allready had tested them successfully
and I gave him feedback some hours ago. I think they will be included in 3.1.2
that should be released in a few days.

MArc

Re: Two config variables produce a warning with their default values

And if a variable is not there, then I guess amanda uses it's internal default values for that. The manpage shows that default values for many options, that are used, when not configured. A year or so ago there was some confusion over - or _, and we realized that half of our params had - and half had _. Since there was no rhyme or reason to it (we had a parameter or two with *both* if I recall correctly), we decided to make the config consider them to be the same thing. It ain't pretty, but it works. So you can spell it either way. Ok. It's just confusing. The warning says "_" and the manpage says "-". Maybe it would be good to use one way everywhere in the application/documentation and allow both (for backward compatibility) in the configuration.

Hello, amcheck (3.1.1) shows the following warning: >WARNING: flush_threshold_dumped (100) must be less than or equal to > flush_threshold_scheduled (0). But I haven't configured any of the two variables - so they use their internal defaults. But the default values seem not to be perfect, when they produce this warning.

Hi,
I'm using amanda 2.6.1p2 and I'm wondering, why my vtapes are allways filled
up to 100%, while LTO3 tapes are not:
vtapes:

The configuration is for both exaclty the same (e. g. dumptypes,
tape_splitsize, etc), except the tapetype definition:
define tapetype LTO3 {
comment "LTO3 (hardware compression off)"
length 386048 mbytes

blocksize 32

}
define tapetype HDD {

Any idea?

Nagios Check for running services
Hi,
I'm playing around with Nagios and try to let it check if the services are
reachable on my server. For the two TCP ports it's no problem, but for the UDP
check it is required to "talk" with the service, to have a response.
The Nagios plugin check_udp needs a send (a string that I send to the service)
and a response (a string that I get back to make sure, it is answering) string.
# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_udp -H {MyBackupServer} -p 10080
With UDP checks, a send/expect string must be specified.
Usage:check_udp -H host -p port [-w ] [-c ] [-s
] [-e ] [-q ][-m ] [-d
] [-t ] [-r ] [-M ] [-v]
[-4|-6] [-j] [-D ] [-S ] [-E]
What string can I send to 10080/udp and what should I expect to get back?
Regards
Marc

I have compression turned off on the drive. I thought I was compressing the dumps, but I just checked the disklist and amanda.conf and found I wasn't. How much is the "length" parameter of the tapetype you use? Have you created your own tapetype definition, by using amtapetype? This fills a tape up to the end with data to find out the parameter for your tape. 2) Is there any way to compress the files now on the holdingdisk before they're taped? If you configured compression in your dumptype section it allready is compressed. If not, I think amanda can't handle the restore, if you compress the holdingdisk data and flush it to tape.

Re: [Amanda-users] Using the Script API for Pre and Post scripts.
Hello, have you checked the wiki? http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Script_API There is a example for ZFS snapshots on OpenSolaris. The script for doing that is shipped with amanda-2.6. Maybe this is a helpfull start.

It's a off-topic question, but I just ask out of curiosity (don't know much about LVM snapshots yet): If I do a LVM snapshot of a running VM (or e.g. databases, too) and backup it, what happens if I restore it later? The VDI was open while the backup was done (and the information inside the VDI show this too, I guess). If I start the VM after the restore, doesn't cause this problems? I guess applications expect files with finalized written data (from the previous shutdown) on startup.

One just arrived and is still in the box. Meanwhile I have a Tandberg StorageLoder 2U LTO3 (service conditions are the same) since 11 month. 3 weeks ago it showed a "servo error". The first technician said the whole library must replaced, because it is a hardware error. But later I got the information by a second one, that I have to do a firmware update, that changes some thresholds. This fixed it. I hope it isn't that often broken like my last Tandberg, otherwise it is the last device that I bought from this vendor. -- Marc Muehlfeld (Leitung IT) Zentrum fuer Humangenetik und Laboratoriumsmedizin Dr. Klein und Dr. Rost Lochhamer Str. 29 - D-82152 Martinsried Telefon: +49(0)89/895578-0 - Fax: +49(0)89/895578-78 http://www.medizinische-genetik.de
