I've been having problems getting a successful level 0 backup from one of our servers. The amreport shows the following:
FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: lopt /dev/hda1 lev 0 FAILED [data timeout] lopt /dev/hda1 lev 0 FAILED [dump to tape failed] Here are some of the FAILED AND STRANGE DUMP DETAILS: DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Wed Feb 6 23:22:40 2002 ... DUMP:Volume 1 started with block 1 at: Wed Feb 6 23:25:16 2002 ... DUMP 2.42% done at 1455 kB/s, finished in 3:21 ... DUMP: 61.83% done at 1543 kB/s, finished in 1:14 -------- This is were details ends. Incidently, it is about this far into the dump, when dump fails. Does anyone know what causes a data timeout ? I thought it might have been my dtimeout setting, so I increased that from the default setting of 1800 seconds, but this had no effect. Thanks, Ben
