Hello,
We are running Amanda 2.4.1p1 on an SGI running IRIX 6.5.3m
and have problems backing up a 'large' partition (aprox 70gig)
to our DLT drive.
We though to use TAR rather than dump for this partition and
modified amanda.conf and disklist in what we believe are the
correct ways.
amanda.conf
===========
< define dumptype comp-tar1 {
< program "GNUTAR"
< user-tar
< compress client fast
< exclude "./felix"
< }
<
< define dumptype comp-tar2 {
< program "GNUTAR"
< user-tar
< compress client fast
< exclude "./[a-e,g-z]"
< }
disklist
========
< #misp /a comp-user
---
> misp /a comp-user
30,31d29
< misp /a/. comp-tar1
< misp /a comp-tar2
However we are now seeing the following error when running amcheck
ERROR: misp: [GNUTAR program not available]
We have installed GNUtar on the client system but it was not
there during the original amanda build and I suspect that
amanda does not know the path to the executables.
>From the client's amandad.debug file
OK /a
OK /a/.
OK /butte
OK /dev/root
OK /usr/local/libexec/runtar executable
OK /usr/local/libexec/rundump executable
OK /sbin/xfsdump exists
ERROR [GNUTAR program not available]
OK /etc/amandates read/writable
OK /usr/sbin/gzip executable
OK /etc/dumpdates read/writable
OK /dev/null read/writable
OK /tmp has more than 64 KB available.
OK /tmp/amanda has more than 64 KB available.
How can we help amanda to find the new executable on the client ?
thanks,
Brian
