Hi all, I've run amanda smoothly for months now. Somehow, when I added anotehr client with a big filesystem to backup, each time amdump is run, it always return this error: *** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [[writing file: No space left on device]]. *** PERFORMED ALL DUMPS TO HOLDING DISK.
The result is that after eache amdump run, I always have to do an amflush on a new tape. Thought that my tape was close to full so I added another tape to the tapecyle. Somehow I still receive the same error. Since I'm using "root-tar" (no software compression) as dumptype, I thought it may be the cause of my problem. Now, I plan to use comp-root-tar but I hesitate since I don't know how to verify if my tape drive (HP SureStore Dat 8) is already doing harware compression or not? Anyone using this device (or someone else) knows the answer? -------------------------- Hery Zo RAKOTONDRAMANANA Simicro Internet T�l: (261) 20 22 648 83 Fax: (261) 20 22 661 83 Mobile: (261) 33 11 427 45 Save Our Smile ;-) --------------------------
