That will help me diagnose the problem on the limited config. (with just
the one host).
It doesn't address the fundamental problem.
Why is there a write file problem, I'm not sure. I think my tape size
estimate is slightly off, so i fall off the end of the tape. However, many
things did go to disk. I will toggle reserve to see if that helps.
(My hold disk is 15Gb in size. My tapes are HP DAT DDS-II drive, so there
is no problem running)
[note, slightly edited to remove host names that I do now want public]
These dumps were to tape DailySet120.
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [[writing file: Input/output error]].
Some dumps may have been left in the holding disk.
Run amflush to flush them to tape.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: DailySet109.
