When I run the "extract" command in amrecover, I get: > extract_file_setup(): will request tape DailySet100 file 0. > EOF, check amidxtaped.debug file on myhostname. > amrecover: short block 0 bytes > UNKNOWN file > amrecover: Can't read file header > extract_list - child returned non-zero status: 1
Upon closer inspection of the debug file, I found: > amrestore: seeking label DailySet100 file 0 config DailySet1. > amtape: no tpchanger specified in >"/usr/local/amanda-2.4.2p2/etc/amanda/DailySet1/amanda.conf" > amrestore: couldn't locate tape `DailySet100' My setup is that I have no tape changer, which has been accounted for in my amanda.conf file: > tapedev "/dev/nst0" # the no-rewind tape device to be used > #runtapes 1 # number of tapes to be used in a single run of amdump > #tpchanger "chg-manual" # the tape-changer glue script > #rawtapedev "/dev/null" # the raw device to be used (ftape only) > #changerfile "/var/lib/amanda/DailySet1/changer" > #changerfile "/var/lib/amanda/DailySet1/changer-status" > #changerfile "/etc/amanda/DailySet1/changer.conf" > #changerdev "/dev/null" So my questions are: 1. Is amrecover suppose to be running "amtape" if I have no tape changer specified? When I run "amtape DailySet1 show", I get: > amtape: no tpchanger specified in >"/usr/local/amanda-2.4.2p2/etc/amanda/DailySet1/amanda.conf" 2. How can I prevent amanda from stopping on this tpchanger problem, isn't my configuration setup properly to not use a tapechanger? Marc - Sitepak
