Our fibre channel devices show up as scsi devices on both Tru64 UNIX and
HP-UX. I would expect most UNIX systems to behave the same. The
underlying drivers are the same, as I understand it (FC being a
serialized version of SCSI).
Best wishes with the implementation.

In my (admittedly limited) experience with encryption and compression, the rule
of thumb has always been to compress first (removing exploitable redundancy and
pattern repetitions) and then encrypt. It also has the advantage that you are
encrypting less volume and reducing the exploitable "surfa
Actually, the time period to avoid is Sunday morning from 0100 to 0300, since
you will get hit as described below, except that the period of Fall danger is
from 0100 to 0200 (all of these entries will get run twice). Fall DST causes
the clocks to reset at 0200 back to 0100, so that period gets
The various dump programs on Solaris need access to the raw device for
the file system. The rundump command is set-uid root so it can make the
backups, but the amcheck portion is not. The solution I found for my
Solaris systems was to change the group membership to the 'amanda'
account to the gro
The command you should run is:
lsof -I :amanda
Which should show the inetd/xinetd process listening on the amanda port
(UDP port 10080). The output should look something like this:
ritcdx> lsof -i :amanda
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
inetd 1285913 root

Thanks for the pointer to the patch. After installing it, all is normal
again (or at least a normal as it gets around here).
Once again, the Amanda list has proved to be one of the best information
resources on the planet.
Best wishes to all,

Obvious choice (probably not suitable, but no harm in suggesting it):
Is there space available (or can be made available) on the tape server?
If so, the second backup is local to the Amanda tape server.
Another possibility: Are there network connections available to put up
a local, isolated conn
Olivier:
Check to see if you can read/write the tape with other tools.
Do something like this for an old Amanda tape you will be relabeling:
mt rewind
dd if=/dev/ of=/tmp/foofile bs=32k
Check the contents of foofile and make sure it is valid.
dd if=/tmp/foofile of=/dev/

For UNIX systems, return code 2 is "No such file or directory" or "File not
found", depending on the OS.
This information is found in the /usr/include/errno.h on most UNIX systems (or
wherever your version of UNIX stores the programming include files). Most
programs will exit with a failure
