Hello...
I have several machines that I back up using amanda. All but one are on
the same network (100Mbit). The other one is across a T1(1.5Mbit) line.
I noticed the following behavour:
OS: linux (redhat 6.x)
amanda: 2.4.2 and 2.4.2p1
DLT changer
lots of room on the holding disk
start
backup all the small partitions
several local partitions start
one of the partitions across the T1 starts
the local partitions end at various times
...
wait some more
remote partition ends (about 4 hours later) and writes to tape
holding area dumps start writeing to tape
Are you saying no
There is no tape activity for any backups started after the remote
(slow) backup started.
I'd need to see the amdump.NN file to diagnose this any further.
It doesn't make any sense and I've never seen Amanda defer writing
to tape. When taper gets done with one file driver always gives it
