Brandon,
Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but here's what I see:
Your tapes hold 35GB native.
You are backing up: 76399.8 MB (76GB)
Compressed, that is: 46003.2 MB (46GB)
Because you use software compression, you have to go by the native capacity
of your tapes. So even compressed, you data won'

Help! Short of strace'ing the entire amdump *shudder*, I can't grep what

The last backup i made, i noticed that one of the tapes is just a 8 Gb tape.

Why doesn't amanda use as much tape as I am giving it? I have amanda
configured to use two tape drives ( AIT SDX1-25C tapes ). My tapetype
states that the tapes are 24192 Mb in size. It filled the first tape
and used only used 8+ Gb of the second. Does amanda ever promote dump

I upgraded my amanda server from redhat 6.2 to redhat 7.1 and upgraded
amanda from 2.4.1p1 to 2.4.2p2.
I upgraded an amanda client to redhat 7.2 and replaced its copy of
the amanda programs (/usr/local/libexec and /usr/local/sbin) with
copies from the server.

I don't like "rsh" as a security mechanism, amandad should be
tcpwrappered in inetd.conf or the equivalent for xinetd instead.
Try recompiling / reinstalling amanda with the
"--without-bsd-security" option.

I think you must add a dot before each exclude list entry and you must
use shell wildcards:
./proc/*
./devices/*
Those are relative to the partition roots, not necessarily to the
filesystem root.

Thanks guys, worked like a charm. I figured that must have been it,
