I've checked the docs/FAQ/google/archives and I must be missing
something really simple. :\
I have an amanda client that I'm backing having problems backing up.
We're using tar for /usr on this client:
____SNIP____ disklist snippet
client /usr no-mirror-tar
____SNIP____
Here's the def for no-mirror-tar:
____SNIP____ amanda.conf snippet
define dumptype no-mirror-tar {
global
program "GNUTAR"
compress client fast
comment "usr partitions dumped with tar"
exclude list ".amanda-exclude.gtar"
priority medium
}
____SNIP____
The global config only has a comment and 'index yes.'
The exclude list (on the client) has this:
____SNIP____
$ cat /usr/.amanda-exclude.gtar
./local/mirror
./local/www/logs
____SNIP____
The runtar.debug looks like this:
____SNIP____
gtar: version 2.4.2
running: /usr/local/bin/tar: gtar --create --directory /usr
--listed-incremental /usr/local/var/amanda/gnutar-lists/client_usr_0.new
--sparse --one-file-system --ignore-failed-read --totals --file -
--exclude-from /usr/.amanda-exclude.gtar .
____SNIP____
And the backup of this partition errors out with this:
____SNIP____
/-- client /usr lev 0 FAILED [/usr/local/bin/tar returned 2]
sendbackup: start [client:/usr level 0]
sendbackup: info BACKUP=/usr/local/bin/tar
sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/usr/local/bin/gzip -dc |/usr/local/bin/tar
-f... -
sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz
sendbackup: info end
? gtar: Cannot add file ./local/mirror/pub/redhat/i386
.
.
.
| Total bytes written: 8484853760
? gtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
sendbackup: error [/usr/local/bin/tar returned 2]
\--------
____SNIP____
There's also a 'file changed as we read it' error, but all of these
errors come from ./local (/usr/local) in places that are excluded (see
above).
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Mike
