RE: failure and strange dump summary -- disk offline
I don't understand what you are asking by All the ones relevant to /dev/sda3 ? I've tried with DUMP and GNUTAR, currently configured to run gnutar. are any switches needed in the grep /dev/sda3 command ? I have cleared /tmp/amanda and running it now -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Paul Bijnens Sent: Friday, October 29, 2004 10:56 AM To: Brian Tima Cc: Amanda Mailing List Subject: Re: failure and strange dump summary -- disk offline Brian Tima wrote: File system is ext3 Which debug file do I check?

I've tried with DUMP and GNUTAR, currently configured to run gnutar. Tar deals with filesystems, not devices, so you need to either use dump on /dev/sda3 or use tar on the path where it it is mounted. Even with tar on a device you should still get a tar image, it just won't be what your expecting, so you still have a problem. . are any switches needed in the grep /dev/sda3 command ?
