System = SunOS 5.6 Problem = When Amanda's crontab runs, amcheck cannot find the tape, but when amcheck is run manually from the command line, it finds the tape fine.
Crontab = 0 16 * * 1-5 /opt/bin/amcheck -m geo 45 0 * * 2-6 /opt/bin/amdump geo;mt -f /dev/rmt/0 off The crontab was created with amanda user logged in, in amanda's home dir as "amanda_crontab". Then as amanda user I ran "crontab amanda_crontab" and then to make sure the changes took effect, "crontab -l". The crontab file is in place. But when cron runs the file, "/opt/bin amcheck -m geo" errors out by not finding the tape. However, if I enter the same command (as amanda user) at the command line, it works fine, finds the tape and OKs the job. Help?
