Orion's done a good job so far, hopefully my patch above helps, and certainly others are welcome to step up. I'm surprised that the long options with a single dash work at all, but the only need a unique prefix thing is well-known. I'll get the docs and usage fixed up to use double-dashes for long options. With your patch the long options still seem to work with a single dash. And another surprise, single letter options, or shortened versions of the options, work with single or double dash.

amoverview error codes
Hello everyone, I'm a bit foggy on one case of error codes in the amoverview output. The documentation says that E indicates an error, and that E followed by a number indicated an error flushing that was later corrected. Cool. I sometimes see errors that are of the form 1E and I can't figure out what this would mean. A level 1 dump was flushed, and then the second time there was an error? Doesn't make much sense to flush twice, and I don't see this case in the documentation. Any hints? -- Ross Vandegrift [EMAIL PROTECTED] The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies.

Here is part with the format for the output line: 152 my $out_format = format STDOUT =\n . 153 @ . x ($opt_hostwidth - 1) . ' ' . 154 @ . x ($opt_diskwidth - 1) .

The format @ right justifies, AND truncates to two characters... That's probably why I never seen three codes like EE0. Maybe it would indeed be better to see the last two characters instead of the first two: it's the end result that counts. Line 157 could be written as: map(substr(\$level{\$host}{\$disk}{'$_'},-2), sort keys %dates)) ... Can you try this out?

(could one do that anyway?) You can use subdirs in the disklist if you use GNUtar as backup program. And yes, it's easier to juggle small things around than a few large ones (all relative to the tapesize). However, when amanda runs the first few times, it has too many DLE's (DiskList Entries) that are all due, and she tries to scram as much as possible on the give tapesize. After two, three cycles, things should have levelled out however. To avoid the rush to tape during the first days, some people add entries to the disklist a few at a time each day only. Or you could run one or more amdumps extra on the first days, asuming the tapecycle is larger than the dumpcycle. Cheers Urs Bitte keine Antwort an diese Mailadresse. Wird nicht gelesen.

Amanda tries to level out the amount of full dumps over the runs in a tapecycles. The command amadmin YourConfig balance will tell you how much big the full dumps are in total, and how much amanda will do each run. From one of my configs: $ amadmin daily balance due-date #fsorig KB out KB balance -- 3/29 Mon 35 52076537 21884417-13.0% 3/30 Tue 47 65993395 25774163 +2.5% 3/31 Wed 26 45819482 25694830 +2.2% 4/01 Thu 17 53597714 27243524 +8.3% 4/02 Fri0 0 0 --- 4/03 Sat0 0 0 --- 4/04 Sun0 0 0 --- -- TOTAL 126 217487722 100597534 25149383 DISTINCT 123 217485940 100595734 There is about 100 Gbyte of data (after compression) to be spread over 4 runs in a week, giving about 25 Gbyte each run. (The fact that on monday, there was 13% less, was a result of a failed computer.) Amanda tries to level out the full dumps so that each run is about the same size, i.e. 25149383 Kbytes. What is not run as full dump is done with an incremental level, which has his own method (bumpsize, bumpdays, etc) to tune. If the tape is too small, amanda will delay full dumps, but if the tape has plenty of room left, amanda will not promote dumps just because. If the balance is good enough, there will be no promotions. Conclusion: there must be some other reason than changing the tape-length. If the tapes are filled around 100% each day, then you probably configured amanda with a tapecycle too low for that tape-capacity. In that case, amanda tries desperately to find her balance, by promoting and delaying the full dumps, but she will never succeed completely. Bitte keine Antwort an diese Mailadresse.

You can find out which one: amadmin ConFig find | sort | head How can I purge old data from the history? If you find out that that tape or holdingdisk file is really not available, you could do: amadmin Config delete hostname diskname but this deletes ALL the information about that host/disk (and if the disk is still in the disklist file, the disk will get a level 0 backup next time!) If it is only one specific entry that you want to delete you could do some careful surgery on the curinfo files: ~amanda/ConFig/curinfo/host/_disk_name/info they are plain text files, so you can delete the stats line that you want to get rid of.

Small bug in amoverview
I found a little bug in amoverview. I curently have a couple of days dumps in the holding directory and when I ran amoverview I get: amanda@moca:~ amoverview TIZ bad date 20020418: in 20020418: found Amanda directory. bad date 20020420: in 20020420: found Amanda directory. date 04 04 04 04 04 host disk 16 17 18 19 20 A tiny bit of research showed that this was related to the output from amadmin find which beginss: amanda@moca:~ amadmin TIZ find Scanning /data/amandahold... 20020418: found Amanda directory. 20020420: found Amanda directory. date host disk lv tape or file file status 2002-04-16 moca / 0 TIZdaily01 3 OK 2002-04-18 moca / 1 /data/amandahold/20020418/moca._.1 0 OK amoverview parses the output of amadmin find and doesn't handle the found Amanda directory lines. The fix is so trivial that I'm just mentioning it inline here because that's actually smaller than the patch :-) After next if $date eq ; insert an extra line next if $host eq found; I don't know if that's the best solution - another solution is next if $date =~ /:$/; Anyway, I've patched my amoverview, and perhaps the maintainer of amoverview can either take my patch on board or do something else appropriate.

amoverview
hello, After doing a start backup, of many filesystem, I run amoverview to check the state of the backup, every filesystem is 0 except two of them (the two that failed first write cause of tape space and were successful on second try) that are with EE code. Whats the meaning of that? Is that correct? In amdump.log seems its everything ok.

Re: Problem with amoverview: Bad interpreter?
Thank you so much, Paul. Yes, it was that simple. I did change a symlink for perl, but I just didn't realize that amoverview was a perl program until I looked at it.

(Summary: yes; appears to be a problem with FreeBSD make; see http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=23328 for that part. A circumvention is to hack the Makefiles; another is to use gmake.)

Re: make fails: don't know how to make amoverview
Installing amanda-2.4.2-20001025-beta2.tar.gz like this: ... results in: make: don't know how to make amoverview. Stop There was a problem with that beta release. As I recall, using GNU make should get around it. Eric Wadsworth John R. Jackson, Technical Software Specialist, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
