John,
For reasons that I don't understand, predating my time at this site,
the Sun systems use "bin" for amanda user and the SGI systems use
"root" for amanda user.
Rather than allow enhanced root access via NFS I selected an equally
questionable solution, chmod o+x on the executable.

I'm surprised amcheck didn't fail. This message comes from amanda

First recommendation is to *not* use localhost (in your disklist).
There are some issues, such as what happens if you decide to switch to
a different tape server. Using the fully qualified host name for all
machines, including the tape server, will be better in the long run

GNU tar is very clever about noticing it is writing to /dev/null and

Upgraded Amanda yesterday from 2.4.1p1 to 2.4.2p2,
created /.amandahosts,
OS is IRIX 6.5.7m,
amcheck runs successfully.
Any idea why there is a failure in the amdump ?

It's those last few lines before the "" that are important.
Could you post a sample of them?

Take a look in the archives for Subject "Amanda on MacOS X". There were
two separate threads (early May and about a week and a half ago).
As I recall, building Amanda was not difficult, but there was some
problem with pipes a

That depends on how you changed request(). :-)

John,
Thanks for the reply.
I'll eagerly await your patch to span multiple tapes. How is this project
progressing? Is it available in alpha form via CVS or anything?
In terms of the OS corruption, I believe I found the cause-bad clusters on
the disk. I've gotten so used to newer disks not ha

Hi,
I have some problem with amrecover. I'm using amanda-2.4.2 with SuSE-7.2
for backup reiserfs with tar. When I want to recover with:
amrecover -C gilsdorf -d /dev/nst0

Those messages come from smbclient. You'll have to ask the Samba
folks what it means.

Hello Folks,
When we change the "request()" in "src/changer-src/chg-manual.sh.in" to
include notification every 60 minutes will AMDUMP automatically detect
the inserted tape and continue the backup? I assume that it will do so
on the next hourly check from what I can understand in the src.
Also
Whoever told you that you need Adaptect is full of bull.
Tekram makes a good, cheap UW controller based on LSI chipset that works
great...fraction of cost of the $200 Adaptec UW kit.
bryan
ps- I'm not knocking Adaptec, but for the UW series controllers, there is no obvious
performance differe
reliability and tape life-span.
I've run DDS2,3,4 and DLT.
DDS just can't compete with DLT.
Capacity, speed, reliability, bang for the buck, tape life-span, etc.

Hi
I've solved my problem with strange danish characters. I'm archiving the
files in a zip-archive, so I can actually make the backup now :)
But I get this strange warning in the logfile:

Compression is controlled by the device name. See "man st".
If you want compression, use (e.g.) /dev/rmt/0mn.
