One filesystem I'm trying to back up with AMANDA is really huge and I'm encountering errors:
This filesystem is so huge, a level 0 is taking longer than 24 hours. Any ideas on what could be going wrong? My best guesses: 1. The filesystem is just too big for TAR. 2. The filesystem is so big, its contents are changing during the tar process and confusing it or amanda. /-- <server> /usr lev 0 FAILED [/usr/local/bin/tar returned 2] sendbackup: start [<server>:/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: Read error at byte 53808128, reading 10240 bytes, in file ./archive/www/access.0203.gz: I/O error ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/Library/easmenu.lbi.LCK: No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/govdocs_new/oldpgs/railroads.html.LCK : No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/govdocs_new/oldpgs/sciencepol.html.LC K: No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/lists/crt/index.html: No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/lists/eact/index.html: No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/lists/easst/index.html: No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/lists/geonet/index.html: No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/lists/libct/index.html: No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/lists/ppt/index.html: No such file or directory ? gtar: Cannot add file ./opt/freeware/apache/share/htdocs/lists/uit/index.html: No such file or directory | Total bytes written: 30747043840 ? gtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors sendbackup: error [/usr/local/bin/tar returned 2] \-------- Any ideas as to what might be causing this? ~wab~
