I have an SGI IRIX system of four machines with 250+
gig of drives to  backup..

I installed Amanda --with-gnutar
./configure --with-gnutar=/usr/freeware/bin/gtar
--disable-libtool --
with-user=backup --with-group=998 --with-owner=backup
--with-
amandahosts 

But now I am not able to have subdirectories backed up
  monsoon    /data1/peter lev 0 FAILED [disk
/data1/peter offline on 
monsoon?]
  monsoon    /data1/nick lev 0 FAILED [disk
/data1/nick offline on 
monsoon?]
  monsoon    /data1/billie lev 0 FAILED [disk
/data1/billie offline
on 
monsoon?]

I was reading in the SYSTEM.NOTES for IRIX 6
If you have xfs filesystems to back up, amanda will
pick xfsdump automatically.

Is there anyway around this catch 22 to use GNUtar
rather then dump so the subdirectories on my big
drives can be backed up.

Thanks, in advance, Dierk
