Hi all, A couple weeks ago I posted a message asking for help configuring Amanda 2.4.2p2 to work under Red Hat Linux 7.2 (i386) with an ADIC FastStor DLT changer. �(It's actually a Dell PowerVault 120T DLT1, but the changer component is manufactured by ADIC)
To recap, everything works fine from the command line - mtx and tar work fine for loading/unloading tapes and doing backups/restores. I just can't get Amanda to even begin to work with the changer. I've tried both the chg-mtx and chg-zd-mtx scripts. John Jackson pointed me to a new chg-zd-mtx script available at ftp://gandalf.cc.purdue.edu/pub/amanda/chg-zd-mtx.sh.in-243 (thanks John) but it also barfs, complaining about "/usr/lib/amanda/chg-zd-mtx: @AMANDA_TMPDIR@/chg-zd-mtx.status.30913: No such file or directory" I could be wrong, but from digging through the script, I'm guessing that it requires a later version of Amanda than 2.4.2p2. So, my questions: 1) Does anyone have this changer working with Amanda? I would give just about anything to get my hands on copies of working config and chg-zd-mtx files. 2) If it's not possible to get it working under 2.4.2p2, should I try the 2.4.3b3 release? Is that version useable in a production environment, and/or is it any more likely to work for me than 2.4.2p2? Any pointers whatsoever would be greatly appreciated, as I've been beating my head against this for over a month and have made very little progress. Thanks, Derrick Miller
