I tried to get some hints from amanda by digging through the source
code.
I found out, that the disklist itself is read in correctly (all entries
are present in the program's C structure). Looking a little bit further
revealed the problem: The amanda server issues the sendsize command to
the clients (asking for sizes for level0 and level1 dumps in this case).
This question is passed on via some protocol to the client (in this case
adler). On the client side in sendsize program there is a loop reading
in
from (stdin), the daemon somehow I assume. The last line I get here
while
reading is truncated (even in case I back up 32 filesystems here; the
exclude=file information is truncated which I can also see in the
logfile
later). The command for getting required sizes simply is too long!
This also fits well with the error I get: adler does not compute the
dump sizes for those filesystems it does not see. And amanda server is
wondering why there are no answers for these filesystems -> "missing
result".
I saw that this is a known problem when searching through the
amanda-hackers
archive at egroups. There should be a patch available; in fact John
already supplied me with this patch and I tried it, but it did not work.
Maybe I got a broken version of the patch?? John, could be please check
this again?
Kind regards,
Urte
