I've inherited two UNIX systems that use Amanda for backups. I haven't been 
fully trained on using Amanda so I'm trying to read through all the MAN 
pages and FAQs.

I haven't found the cause of this problem and was wondering if someone here 
could tell me what is going wrong.

Here is the message I get after the backup fails on one of my systems:

*** THE DUMPS DID NOT FINISH PROPERLY!

These dumps were to tapes .
Tonight's dumps should go onto 1 tape: DailySet118.

What is this taper: FATAL shmget: Cannot allocate memory message mean?

Thanks!
