Hi,
I'm running amanda 2.4.1 p1 on Solaris 7 using DLT IV tapes with 60 GB
of holding area.
I'm trying to backup a 20 GB veritas partition (vxfs) on a client using
gtar 1.13 ( last night I tried gtar 1.12 and got bad file number). Usually I
use "compress client", I have tried with "compress none" but still fails.
I can backup other smaller (5GB) veritas partitions on the same client. I have chown
the raw devices to backup and chgrp operator; also amcheck always returns sucess,
no problems found.
What seems to happen is that gtar just never returns (from sendsize),
I truss gtar in the beginning at it is crancking along really good, if I truss
it after 2 hours for a really long time I just don't get anything. I also have tried a
timeout of 36 hours just to be sure but it failed.
If I wait long enough I'll have to kill the tar and I'll get in the report:
FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
theta /export/home lev 0 FAILED [data timeout]
...
FAILED AND STRANGE DUMP DETAILS:
/-- theta /export/home lev 0 FAILED [data timeout]
sendbackup: start [theta:/export/home level 0]
sendbackup: info BACKUP=/usr/local/bin/gtar
sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/usr/local/bin/gzip -dc |/usr/local/bin/gtar -f... -
sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz
sendbackup: info end
\--------
Below are the debug files (at the point when gtar is still running eating 50%
of the CPU but not doing anything, I trussed it for 2 hours.)
Any help or comments are appreciated.
thanks!
Ed.
