It looks like dump (ufsdump?) is crashing with a segmentation violation.  
Try running it by hand and see if it works.

What happens when you run dump on that fs from a CLI?  Might need a
local tape drive or get dump to write to a file.

Good Luck

backup failure on one disk

2002-11-07 Thread Steven Law

Hello there,

One of our disks as been failing to backup for the last week or so and I
have been unable to find out why.  I originally thought it was due to a
disk mirroring problem but that has been sorted out.  I then thought it
was due to a directory with no name (or hidden characters) but it is
still failing after removing that.  The only messages in the local log
files are

running /opt/amanda-2.4.1p1/libexec/killpgrp
  DUMP: Writing 32 Kilobyte records
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Thu Nov 07 12:15:03 2002
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
  DUMP: Dumping /dev/md/rdsk/d14 (ms-utilserver:/opt) to standard output.
  DUMP: Mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
  DUMP: Mapping (Pass II) [directories]
  DUMP: SIGSEGV()  ABORTING!
.
(no size line match in above dump output)


I'm running solaris 7 on the client and server.  Anyone any ideas how to
investigate further ?
