Hello, I'm administering an amanda setup that uses cron to schedule the backups. Everything was working fine until someone else forgot to change the tape and amanda kicked up a fuss because the label was incorrect. (I was out of the office for a week). The backup was sent to a holding disk, but that was too small for all the backup data.
The backup was recovered manually with amflush and I have since run amcheck and amdump manually without problems. The only thing is that the original cron scheduling fails. I have restarted cron and checked a number of other services for conflicts. I have other cron jobs that do execute when scheduled but as yet amanda won't play with the other kids in the cron sandbox... What am I missing? Has anyone seen this behaviour before. Any suggestions are appreciated Thanks, Tom Thomas Robinson Ehbas Ltd T: 01273 234 665 F: 01273 704 499
