Hi
I've been running amanda for a couple of years in our UK office, even
running MacOS X clients (using gtar so the filetype/ownership can get
lost but that's easy to fix) so I've got 1/2 a clue about all this.
BUT I'm trying to make amanda work on a Netmax Linux system which is
proving fun on the tape side of things.
If I use 2.4.3 I have to specify the blocksize to get the thing to work
(20). If I just it run I get short write errors and also problems about
multiple block write errors in /var/log/messages. Same for trying to
label a tape.
If I use 2.4.2p2 I get no joy at all with the same issues.
How can I force the block size in the amanda.conf (or elsewhere) to use
20 rather than the 32 is looks like it uses by having a very quick look
at the code. (yes I have messed with maxtapeblocks in the config line
for 2.4.3)??
