Hello,
I need help with figuring out why
amanda is giving me tape errors. First off I am using Sony 20/40G dgd 150p tapes
on a Dell powervault 120T DDS-4 autoloader on RedHat 7.2. Being that the tapes I
am using were not in the tapelist I ran the command
# tapetype -f /dev/nst0 -t DDS-4
and the output after several hours was
define tapetype DDS-4 {
comment "just produced by
tapetype program"
length 16323
mbytes
filemark 190
kbytes
speed 1264
kps
}
So I put this info in my amanda.conf file and
defined tapetype as DDS-4.
So then I ran the command
bash-2.05$ /usr/sbin/amcheck DailySet1
as the user amanda and I get the output
of
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
----------------------------- ERROR: /dev/nst0: not an amanda tape (expecting a new tape) NOTE: skipping tape-writable test NOTE: info dir /var/lib/amanda/DailySet1/curinfo: does not exist NOTE: it will be created on the next run Server check took 5.000 seconds Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check -------------------------------- Client check: 1 host checked in 0.015 seconds, 0 problems found (brought to you by Amanda 2.4.2p2) I have also sent a copy of my amanda.conf as an attatchment. If anyone can help I would highly appreciate it. Thanks, Chris Bourne Chris Bourne
