Re: amindexd
I've tried different ownership for amindexd. Here's the xinetd configuration for amindexd. Thanks Rich [EMAIL PROTECTED] xinetd.d]# cat amandaidx # default: off # # description: Part of the Amanda server package service amandaidx { socket_type = stream protocol= tcp wait= no user= amanda group = disk server = /usr/lib/amanda/amindexd disable = yes } Quoting Matt Hyclak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Tue, Jul 19, 2005 at 10:48:23AM -0600, [EMAIL PROTECTED] enlightened us: > > Well. > > I have checked the docs and faq. > > > > > > I'm running the command as root as specified by the faq > > http://amanda.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/fom?_recurse=1&file=5 > > > > > > >You see, I had 127.0.0.1 configured for user amanda for amdump.

Well. I have checked the docs and faq. I'm running the command as root as specified by the faq http://amanda.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/fom?_recurse=1&file=5 >You see, I had 127.0.0.1 configured for user amanda for amdump. Amrecover HAS to be run as root. Also running the command specifying index server and tape server fails in the same way as if it were localhost. #amrecover CCC -s fastkernel.chem.utah.edu -t fastkernel.chem.utah.edu AMRECOVER Version 2.4.4p1. Contacting server on fastkernel.chem.utah.edu ... amrecover: cannot connect to fastkernel.chem.utah.edu: Connection refused [EMAIL PROTECTED] xinetd.d]# cat /var/lib/amanda/.amandahosts ##127.0.0.1 root fastkernel.chem.utah.edu root Thanks for your help Rich
amrecover fails with stream_client_privileged Connection refused
Hi. I'd installed amanda a short time ago. Backups are working fine, however now I'm testing the recover and I'm not able to get the server to access itself. I've changed the user in /root/.amandahosts, commented out the localhost entry as well. And played with ownershop of amandaidx. All to no avail. # amrecover CCC AMRECOVER Version 2.4.4p1. Contacting server on localhost ... amrecover: cannot connect to localhost: Connection refused cat amrecover.20050719094728.debug amrecover: debug 1 pid 2019 ruid 0 euid 0: start at Tue Jul 19 09:47:28 2005 amrecover: stream_client_privileged: connect to 127.0.0.1.10082 failed: Connection refused amrecover: cannot connect to localhost: Connection refused amrecover: pid 2019 finish time Tue Jul 19 09:47:28 2005

which tape changer for Qualtstar TLS-4210
Hello. I've been trying to get a tape changer TLS-4210 to work for a while for amanda. I'm unable to get the tape changer to work. For now I've been using the mtx command on a linux machine. The problem is that as soon as I mount a drive. The tape gets stuck and will not eject. Am I using the wrong protocol. The jukebox has worked well before. thankyou Rich #mtx -f /dev/sg0 inquiry Product Type: Medium Changer Vendor ID: 'QUALSTAR' Product ID: 'TLS-4210' Revision: '2.12' Attached Changer: No # mtx -f /dev/sg0 status Storage Changer /dev/sg0:2 Drives, 12 Slots ( 0 Import/Export ) Data Transfer Element 0:Full (Storage Element 5 Loaded) Data Transfer Element 1:Full (Storage Element 12 Loaded) Storage Element 1:Full Storage Element 2:Full Storage Element 3:Full Storage Element 4:Full Storage Element 5:Empty Storage Element 6:Full Storage Element 7:Full Storage Element 8:Full Storage Element 9:Full Storage Element 10:Full Storage Element 11:Full Storage Element 12:Empty
