For some strange reason, cron has stopped running Amdump for me at
night. I do see that cron is trying to run amdump at night.
cron.log:
Feb 5 00:45:00 itchy CROND[6620]: (amanda) CMD (/usr/sbin/amdump BIG1)
Here is Amanda's crontab:
0 16 * * 1-5 /usr/sbin/amcheck -m BIG1
45 0 * * 2-6 /usr/sbin/amdump BIG1
There is nothing in /tmp/amanda, as if amdump never runs.
If I manually run amdump:
su amanda -c "/usr/sbin/amdump BIG1"
It works. I get logs in /tmp/amanda, and a report emailed to me.
I changed group permissions for Amanda about a week ago. I noticed that
I still had Amanda in the group "operator" from a previous install from
a redhat rpm. Now, amanda is part of group "disk" (6).
Amanda is set up like the following:
amanda:x:33:6:Amanda user:/var/lib/amanda:/bin/bash
Any thoughts?
