Just a follow-up... Thank you for the suggestions, Jean-Louis. I removed the log file, ran amcleanup, and made sure that all amanda processes on the server were stopped. After that, the Daily backup job was completed successfully again, and have been working correctly since. Thank you,

Good morning all! I've started getting these reports in the morning, within the past week, but I can't seem to figure out why. It seems that a dump is happening overnight but I can't figure out where it's coming from. The only nightly amanda job in my crontab is the Daily, which kicks off
