We have been experiencing a lot of failures on full backup with a large dump
disk.
Our dump disk devices are:
/dev/dsk/c0t13d0s0 8314393 2708 8145398 1% /usr13
/dev/dsk/c2t1d0s3 17413250 10 17239108 1% /usr14
The holdingdisk definitions are:
holdingdisk hd1 {
comment "main holding disk"
directory "/usr13/amanda_holding_disk" # where the holding disk is
use -2500 mb # how much space can we use on it
chunksize 0 mb
}
holdingdisk hd2 {
comment "main holding disk"
directory "/usr14/amanda_holding_disk" # where the holding disk is
use -2500 mb # how much space can we use on it
chunksize 0 mb
}
All backups work fine using hd1, but when using hd2, the disk fills; backups
go into degraded mode and several fail. Is there some limit on the size of
holding disk that amanda can manage?
All parameters for the two dumps are identical and the amount of data backed
up using each backup set is very similar.
Has anyone else seen this issue?
