Hi,
Searching the archives, I found messages from Don Potter concerning
using the L280 on a Sun and that he had it working. I am attempting
to use an L280 on a Linux system. The hardware is recognized by the
OS and I am able to load/unload tapes manually at the console and
using mtx.
Conor,
Do you have the GNU binutils installed? Some projects compile
on Solaris better using the GNU binutils as opposed to Sun's native
implementation. The error message indicates Sun's 'as' assembler is
choking on the assembler files. If you do have GNU binutils installed,
try checking
Hi folks.
I would like to back up several Linux servers RedHat/Slackware to an NFS-mounted
partition on the amanda server using files instead of tapes.
It seems to me that gtar should support this... has anyone tried it and how did they
go about it?
thanks,
john.
Hi,

Hello,
Is there a limit on the length of the path when using amrestore? I
attempted to restore a partition but kept getting errors. When I went
down a few subdirectories the restore worked. Amrestore seems to fail to
restore files when the path is over 80 characters long.

How would you tell amanda to do this? Would you change the disklist file?
Would you use strategy no-full?
Then do a SDLT run once in a while

Is there a way to configure amanda so that runtapes is calculated
dynamically to fit in that partciular amdump?
Using two or more tapes for a dump is wasteful when there's only 10% of
tape used for that dump.

Make sure you also have the readline 'development' package installed,
as Amanda needs to find the header files so it can properly link to
the libraries. Also, if it is installed in an odd place configure
won't find it, so you would need to add some configure options.
