I have not been able to get a backup of one of my amanda clients for 3 days. The only errors I can find is in the amandad.20031104013547000.debug, which are:
amandad: time 7453.715: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 7453.715: waiting for ack: timeout, retrying amandad: time 7463.715: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 7463.715: waiting for ack: timeout, retrying amandad: time 7473.715: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 7473.715: waiting for ack: timeout, retrying amandad: time 7483.715: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 7483.715: waiting for ack: timeout, retrying amandad: time 7493.715: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 7493.715: waiting for ack: timeout, giving up! amandad: time 7493.715: pid 4331 finish time Tue Nov 4 03:40:41 2003 I've searched the FAQ which suggested that I increase the ctimeout value in the amanda.conf file. I increased the value from 30 to 120 on the Amanda server, but it's still timing out. Should I keep increasing the ctimeout value until I find the magic number or is there anything else I should be looking at? Thanks in advance, CWilson
