I was using dump to backup my linux clients; Apparently the previopus Sysadmin got no problems with dump on linux until one day dump got stuck dumping a huge backup (more than 12GB of data). I replaced the dump version for a new one, but then i got more weird status errors from amanda.
I gived up, followed the advice i received here and swithed to Gnu Tar. Now the prod. backups are running fine :) The Solaris dump works greath and i'm still using it.
