Hello. May be this is offtopic a little, but I hope your expirience will help me. I try to use Amanda on Compaq ML330 and RedHat 7.2 (kernel 2.4.18). amdump and amflush crash with error
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [[writing file: Input/output error]]. Some dumps may have been left in the holding disk. Run amflush again to flush them to tape. The next tape Amanda expects to use is: oracle.unity.00. FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: � localhost �/datafiles lev 0 FAILED [out of tape] After that my tape device hungs. LEDs show that it is in use (Busy in Tape LED are on), and I can't eject cartridge. Reboot does'nt help, only full shutdown (with power off) helps me to eject tape and to "reanimate" device. Besides this there are some messages in /var/log/messages: --------- Jan 20 16:22:38 b2resec kernel: Timer Expired Jan 20 16:22:38 b2resec kernel: aic7xxx_abort returns 0x2003 Jan 20 16:22:38 b2resec kernel: scsi1:0:6:0: Attempting to queue a TARGET RESET message Jan 20 16:22:38 b2resec kernel: aic7xxx_dev_reset returns 0x2003 Jan 20 16:22:38 b2resec kernel: Recovery SCB completes Jan 20 16:22:43 b2resec kernel: scsi: device set offline - not ready or command retry failed after bus reset: host 1 channel 0 id 6 lun 0 Jan 20 16:22:43 b2resec kernel: st0: Error 10000 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt 0x0, host bt 0x1).
