John,
For all three clients amcheck reported success.
For Bali, I removed bali.ph.albany.edu from the tables, it seems
that was interfering with bali.wadsworth.org which I don't really
understand as my /etc/resolv.conf is correct and bali was defined
correctly in both DNS and NIS tables.
As far as the other two clients sendsize.20010628122106.debug shows
(the errors are the same on both clients).
start included log extract
:
calculating for amname '/usr7', dirname '/usr7'
sendsize: getting size via dump for /usr7 level 0
sendsize: running "/usr/local/libexec/rundump (xfsdump) -F -J -l 0 - /dev/rdsk/d
ks1d3s0"
running /usr/local/libexec/killpgrp
running /usr/local/libexec/killpgrp
cannot execute /usr/local/libexec/killpgrp: Exec format error
cannot execute /usr/local/libexec/killpgrp: Exec format error
sendsize: exec /usr/local/libexec/rundump failed or no dump program available: Exec
format error
:
end included extract
which I find confusing as /usr/local/libexec is exported by the server
where this utility runs to both clients and all three are IRIX64 architecture.
I wouldn't be too bothered by a failure to execute because of root-nfs
access restrictions but I'd thought that Exec format errors where do
to architecture issues.
thanks,
Brian
