Hello Folks,
I'm getting weird timeouts with Solaris 2.7 clients but not with Linux
clients. Here's the debug message:
Amanda 2.4 NAK HANDLE 005-80C20708 SEQ 980329506
ERROR amandad busy
Also, I'm finding that the backups are very slow compared to when done
manually. I used to mount the directories by NFS and tar everything.
It used to take only around 4 hours. With Amanda, 8 hours have gone by
and it's still not half done.
I've got the server and clients using the Amanda executibles from the
same NFS mount. Would it speed things up if I installed everything
locally on the client machines? Would this also get rid of the Solaris
errors mentionned above? Here's a status output:
