Trouble with new Client
Hi! Amanda is running on my server since August 2009. I backup only one ubuntu-client. 3 weeks ago I made a completely new installation on my ubuntu-client using ubuntu karmic-koala. I installed amamda-client on this client and restored all necessary files from my amanda-server. It works very well. But now I want to backup my client like 3 weeks ago. The backup ends with an error. This is the message: Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check ERROR: NAK chef: user backup from knecht.fritz.box is not allowed to execute the service noop: Please add amdump to the line in /var/backups/.amandahosts on the client I wonder where I have to add those lines? I've added it in /var/lib/.amamdahosts, /var/backups/.amandahosts which is a symbolic link to /etc/amandahosts. The error messages are still the same. What can I do? -- Best Regards Thomas Wegner www.tommiwe.de
Re: Trouble with new Client
Am Sonntag, den 29.11.2009, 13:18 -0600 schrieb Dustin J. Mitchell: Hi Dustin! Thanks a lot. It works! :-)) On closer inspection, the error message in the original post gives enough information to reconstruct the proper amandahosts line. Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check ERROR: NAK chef: user backup from knecht.fritz.box is not allowed to execute the service noop: Please add amdump to the line in /var/backups/.amandahosts on the client So this is an amcheck run, presumably to be followed by an amdump run, from host knecht.fritz.box, and sending username backup. So, on the client (not the server!), you should add knecht.fritz.box backup amdump to /var/backups/.amandahosts That's it. Not using FQDN was my problem. -- Best Regards Thomas Wegner www.tommiwe.de

Re: Amanda can't overwrite old tapes
Am Donnerstag, den 16.10.2008, 17:44 -0400 schrieb Jon LaBadie: Hello Jon! Assuming you have ten tapes labeled 01-10, and use tape 01 today, that tape, tape 01 can not be used again until tapes 02-10 are used. When tape 01 can be used again, amanda is willing to use it or another never used tape such as tape 11 or 12 if they are also in circulation. But it will not use tape 02, because (tapecycle -1) other tapes have not been used since tape 02 was last used. Thanks for explanation. I think I will edit my configuration. -- Regards Thomas

exlude list
Hi! I'm new to this list. I don't understand the way exclude lists work. I want to exclude /var/tmp, /var/log, /var/spool and /var/cache and also /tmp. Where do I have define exclude defintions? Is /etc/amanda/exclude_file the correct path? Can anyone send me an example of this file? -- Thanks Tommi Homepage: www.tommiwe.de Key fingerprint = 5451 1661 23A7 0C7D CA32 48B0 F266 5D60 0436 17C4
Re: Connection refused by peer
Am Montag, den 31.10.2005, 08:59 -0400 schrieb Gene Heskett: Hi Gene! Thanks for that detailed answer. In /root/.amandahosts is an entry 'localhost root'. Wrong location for the .amandahosts file. It should be in the $home/$user directory whom amanda runs as. The FAQ discusses this (whats wrong with building and running amanda as root) I believe. My user is backup and he has an .amandahosts file in his home directory. If you built and installed amanda as root, then rip it all out, nuke the src dir, then do an adduser amanda and make this user a member of the group disk or backup (whatever your machine uses for those disk related tasks) then do an su amanda, untar a fresh copy of the src tree, recopy your config script into that directory and re-exec that script, which in my case finishes up with a make, all done as the user amanda. Then become root again and reinstall it. The permissions will now be correct. I've installed a debian package so that I don't know what build options were chosen at build time. Can I check this anywhere? I don't whant to build amanda from source. Greetings Thomas
