So you installed cygwin on those Windows clients, and run some port
of Amanda-clients for Cygwin on Windows, right?
And you're using gnutar for cygwin on those windows clients?
Which version?

For at least one windows client you did get an estimate for
at least one DLE.

Is there any difference in the definition of the DLE's of one that
works or one that does not work?
On the client, in the client debug files, (wherever those may be
located in cygwin) do you see an error message when gnutar does
it's estimates on the different drives?
Or do they just take too long, and the amanda server has given
up waiting for those numbers?

I'll be able to answer these questions specifically when I have access;
for now let me say that I installed the latest  zmanda windows client
using the installation package available on the zmanda download
page. This is the version: AmandaBackupClient-2-5-2p1.msi
 I did not go out of my way to install cygwin or gnutar---I
understand that the zmanda windows client does this and that the zmanda
wiki advises against installing your own versions; from the
zmanda wiki: http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Windows_client

The Amanda Windows client package uses the Microsoft Windows installer
and includes Amanda client dependencies (Gnu tar, GnuZip, OpenSSH) as
part of the package.
This Windows client uses Cygwin and will install Cygwin binaries. If
you have Cygwin installed,
this package may not work.



 For at least one windows client you did get an estimate for
 at least one DLE.

 Is there any difference in the definition of the DLE's of one that
 works or one that does not work?

Here are the DLEs


# windows client test
curdata.gc.cuny.edu c:\ comp-root-tar
curdata.gc.cuny.edu e:\ comp-root-tar
curdata.gc.cuny.edu z:\ comp-root-tar
curdata.gc.cuny.edu e:\Applications comp-root-tar
curdata.gc.cuny.edu e:\ArcIMS   comp-root-tar

The first worked; the rest didn't

 On the client, in the client debug files, (wherever those may be
 located in cygwin) do you see an error message when gnutar does
 it's estimates on the different drives?
 Or do they just take too long, and the amanda server has given
 up waiting for those numbers?

client times out

2006-02-10 Thread Roy Heimbach

We're running amanda-2.4.5p1 server on a white box under debian/sarge.

We're backing up from 8 hosts without any problems beyond an occasional
client timeout.  Working clients are running debian/sarge, RHAS 2.1,
and AIX 5, and the same 2.4.5p1 release of amanda.

We have a CentOS 4.1 client that is failing consistently with client-side
timeouts.  The client starts, dumps 35 MB to the server, then times out.
The partition being dumped is around 1 GB.  The time out occurs when
iptables on the client is turned on, and also when it is turned off.
Gtar is 1.15.1.

Timeout messages in /tmp/amanda/sendbackup.* on the client look like
this:
---
sendbackup: debug 1 pid 18885 ruid 518 euid 518: start at Fri Feb 10 02:20:02

sendbackup: time 958.028: pid 18885 finish time Fri Feb 10 02:36:00 2006
---

We reduced the keepalive interval on both client and server but didn't
see a change.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks,
Roy Heimbach

Client times out on amcheck after upgrade to 2.4.3
