I try to use amlabel (/usr/sbin/amlabel -f DailyNAS1 DailyNAS01 slot 1)to prepare the directories, but I keep getting an error that says "device could not load slot "current": not a device file."
Just verifying: you are using amanda 2.4.3 or later?
------------------------ Contents of amanda.conf: uh, having problems getting this one... let me know if you need to see something
Just verifying here: you should have lines in amanda.conf with:
tpchanger "chg-multi" changerfile "/the/path/to/the/file/changer.conf"
------------------------ Contents of changer.conf: multieject 0 gravity 0 needeject 0 ejectdelay 0 statefile /etc/amanda/DailyNAS1/changer-status firstslot 1 lastslot 1 slot 1 file:/test/amanda/slot1 #verified to be existing. this path contains a folder called "data".
looks fine.
What is the result of the command:
ammt -f file:/test/amanda/slot1 status
---------------------------- contents of changer-status: #created by wab 7-16-03 multieject 0 gravity 0 needeject 0 ejectdelay 0 firstslot 1 lastslot 1 curslot 1 curloaded 1 slot 1 file:/test/amanda/slot1 statefile /var/lib/amanda/DailyNAS1/statefile
This is strange! Mine looks like:
# multi-changer state cache: DO NOT EDIT! curslot 4 curloaded 1
Those three lines, and that's all. Notice the first line and notice your first line: did edit this by hand?
