Hey ppl..
I have a problem with amanda, it can load the tape on my DLT7 Autoloader from
Tandberg, but it can't eject the tapes..
I have attached the debug file, the amanda.conf and the chg-scsi.conf file..
The output from amtape Daily show:
amtape: scanning all 5 slots in tape-changer rack:
As everybody knows, for full backup only we set the dumpcycle to
0.(waiting for the implentation of NOINC strategy.
I also set runspercycle 2
tapecycle 2
Because the total full backups is more than one tape and less than two
tapes. Bur I still get some level 1 backups.

Check the FAQ at www.amanda.org. This usually means amcheck is not
setuid root.

I had a problem like that when I first started using my Exabyte changer, and
it turned out that it requires an explicit eject before the picker will move
the tape from the drive. Can you move tapes with any utility outside of
AMANDA? The 'userland' utility that I use shows which tapes are

Try setting OFFLINE_BEFORE_UNLOAD=1.
This will cause Amanda to issue a
mt -f /dev/tape device offline
command before attempting the eject.

Amanda put that option there? ...
Ummm, because that's required to do incremental backups. :-)
And is it feasible/desirable

I've just released a fairly large guide to setting up an Amanda server on
Linux, installing clients on Linux and Solaris, and restoring files. I hope
it proves useful.

Ok, 'tpchanger' is set to 'stc-changer' ... It doesn't used a
changer config file as such.
The how do you expect it to know one of your slots is empty?
Your problem is with the changer, not Amanda. All Amanda ever does is
ask the changer to go to the next tape. The changer will have to know
I got all nine items of my /home/amanda directory archived, unlike when

just something about
Today I've noticed (don't know if it's because I upgraded or not) that
I have some files in '/var/amanda' directory. All the files are from one

What do you mean by waiting for the implentation of NOINC strategy?
As far as I know, noinc is now implemented (in 2.4.2 and beyond).

I upgraded my backup server tpday from Amanda 2.4.1p1 to 2.4.2p2.
Now when I run amcheck daily it reports the folloing errror on the
amanda client which is on the backup server:

I looked through the E-mail archive and there were a couple of

I need to back up a laptop (WIN98SE) that will not be attached to the
network during normal Amanda backup hours. Thus, I call it transient. It
goes home, and might not be back at regular intervals.
The solution that I'm going to go

Hi all,
Thanks to John for his assistance. Ended up getting it to work because I'd
made a mess of the xinet.d configuration - the index service was pointing at
something that existed, but was of no assistance (not going to pretend to
know what the file in question did).
Fixed that, and then had
