Hello,
Here it is my settings in my conf file :
ctimeout 10 # number of seconds to check each servers.
dtimeout 7200
etimeout 600# number of seconds per filesystem for estimates.
Size of my entry /home/ftp/unix_accounts is more than 5GB. I tested in taking subdirectories
Try a higher etimeout, this would solve your problem.

I changed values in my conf file :
ctimeout 10 # number of seconds to check each servers.
dtimeout 7200

I'm trying to get a test setup going to mirror what we have at the IDC so i
can make changes before applying them there. I have an old DDS4 autoloader
that used to be at the IDC connected to a test setup here.
When i configure it in exactly the same way that it worked at the IDC i get

Dear all,
Recently added a couple of netware servers to our Amanda backup regime -
I used ncpmount to give the servers mount points and added the mount
points to the disklist.
The files backed up successfully on their first night, as a 'level 0'

I'm in a bind here.. I'm totally stuck and I was supposed to get these
files restored 3 days ago. If I'm in the wrong place, if I'm missing some
obvious thing, or if I've left out any information needed to troubleshoot
this properly, please let me know. I'm stuck here. :(

First time - setup.
I have a HP-DAT 40 that should get 40GB with hardware compression.
I ran amtape type and got the following.
length 16534 mbytes
filemark 0 bytes
speed 2570 kbytes
Does this look right? The first run didn't come close to 40gb or even 20gb.
thanks, Bill

ahhh that seems to work thanks - but it seems to work if i set it to sg2 or
sg3 ? Any idea why that might be?

Ha, yeah right. Marketers lie. This depends *heavily* on your data.

Are you saying that you are able to successfully
backup the Netapp without using the modified dump
program & using Amanda version earlier than 2.4.4 ?
If you are successfully able to do so, can you send me
your disklist for the Netapp part so that I can
compare with mine ?

Actually, let me begin again.
We actually this working on amanda 2.4.1 (I think). The source code for
amanda-client had to be patched to collect the correct estimate, AND you
had to replace /sbin/dump with the perl script(s), and everything
worked. When we went to 2.4.2 it broke and we didn't

I's still running 2.4.2p2 and use GNU tar to back up

Yes by the "modified dump" program I do mean the perl
scripts & the Netapp hack in sendsize.c
I agree that these scripts & the hack will let you
back up certain directories on the Netapp. But the
trouble starts when the directories you are trying to
backup are greater than 20Gb or so.

How big are the filesystems that you backup from the
netapp filer ?
If you are happy using TAR for doing Amanda backups on
the Netapp, I'd like to try the same on my backup
host. Since my Netapp is at about 90 Gb usage with one
of the mounted directories close to 50 Gb, backups

Ok so I finally took a chance and have installed the
latest amanda version 2.4.4 as follows:
./configure --with-user=amanda --with-group=disk \
--with-gnutar=/bin/tar\
--prefix=/usr/local/amanda
I thought this is what is needed to tell Amanda to use
GNUTAR instead

If I am not wrong, amanda needs to update some information on the
files it had backed-up, in order to keep track of what file are
changing or not since last back-up.
I would think that if the file systems are readonly,

Hi,
I have a SONY TSL-9000. (my copy of) mtx doesn't quite work correctly with
this changer, and thus chg-zd-mtx doesn't work correctly. Does anyone
have a hacked copy that they will share?
Thanks!
