Greetings,
My backups are running now, but i'm having problems
using amrecover; I added all the amanda services on
the /etc/inetd.conf (/etc/xinetd.d/amanda on the linux
client) and in the /etc/services.
Here are the tests i performed:

Hello people,
This list has been a very good source of information
on setting up amanda and i will like to contribute; I
made a little Perl script that sents an email to the
responsible of changing tapes on a tape unit for the
next backup.
The script is smart (well kind of :) ), only sents the
or not.
Anyway thanks for the info :)
Probably posting the code will clarify the whole thing
but again i don't know if the list is the best place
to do it.
Moderator, any ideas ? ;)

Hello,
Yes, the problem was that i was running amanda on the
tape server instead of the client. I ran amanda on the
client and worked without a problem!.
Also, as you said before, i forgot to set up the
index parameter.

I was using dump to backup my linux clients;
Apparently the previopus Sysadmin got no problems with
dump on linux until one day dump got stuck dumping a
huge backup (more than 12GB of data). I replaced the
dump version for a new one, but then i got more weird
status errors from amanda.

I'm using Amrecover to try to recover some file; I did
a full dump (forced using amadmin) and i here is the
output of a failed recover procedure:

Please ignore my previous post, i found what the
problem was: the /etc/amandates was a directoy, not a
file! (i made a mistake during one of the amcheck
messages).
I solved the problem checking the /tmp/amanda losg on
the client side, they were very helpfull :)

Greetings,
I have a Solaris server running the Latest version of
amanda and a Linux client running the same version of
amanda; I'm able to dump (backup) the small partitions
on that server but when i try to dump the big
partition the amanda goes crazy and just stays idle!.
Here is the latest
ideas so far?
