Hi,
today, there have been problems with the tape drive again. Slot 7 could
no longer be found in the slot list.
I unloaded the module for the SCSI controller and sg and st, then turned
off the device and turned it back on and reloaded the modules. Devices
are reported as they should.
Brad,
Upgrade to 2.5.0p2
The 'amtape update' was missing from 2.5.0 and barcode will not work
with this release.

Could you do a `mtx status' and send us the output?

Hello list,
FYI: I'm happily running amanda-2.5.0 on Mac OS X 10.4.6. No compile

Ah, mtx was the program whose name
Has anyone used a utility from M$ called vshadow?
It is a .exe that comes in a free SDK called VSS.
As far as I can tell it seems to be an attempt to
do the equivalent of snapshots so that backups
can be done to otherwise uncopyable files.
Sound like a familiar problem?
If I understand it

Josef, here are some of my comments about TSM that I sent to a lister off
list. I think in a later email I will try to list the things that I liked
about TSM that I would like to see in Amanda. Some may not be possible.
At my previous job we used TSM and it is a very nice backup solution. We had
Hope it's ok if I jump in here.
I work at a University on our backups. I agree with everything Gordon said
about TSM. We have both Amanda and TSM here. Our TSM setup is pretty much
what Gordon described. We use Amanda to only backup what would be required
to restore the system on a server.

So it is not a general solution, but maybe a start?
Is this related to their Volume Management Services? IIRC, this
interacts with a backgroup service like LVM or Veritas.

Greetings all;
I'm attempting to compile and install amanda-2.5.0p2 on a 2-way Sunfire
V210 running Solaris 9 w/ 2gb RAM. Compiler is gcc, v3.4.2, linker is
Sun's supplied /usr/ccs/bin/ld. Worthy of note is that this same
package configured and compiled flawlessly on a 2-way Dell 1850 server
