hello, and thanks for your answers.
If my tar is broken or my amanda version is wrong, why it is the first time
it happens since i started using amanda 4 months ago???
I will follow your advices.
>I recieved this mail, what is the meaning of "no backup size line"?????
>Why the dump failded???
That message means Amanda could not parse the last line of output from
tar that says how big the backups were. It reports the line:
> ? Total bytes written: nan (0B, ?B/s)
That's clearly wrong. My guess is your version of GNU tar is broken.
What version are you using? If it's 1.13 based, you need at least
1.13.17, or better yet, 1.13.19. If it's 1.12, you need the patch
from www.amanda.org (although I don't think it affects this particular
problem).
FYI, these errors:
> | gtar:
> ./desar/desar11/LineaBase/lotoserver/var/socks/sock.bbox_server:
> socket ignored
are fixed in the latest Amanda (2.4.2p2).
