AMLABEL Hard-Disk

[Jeremy Aldrich]

Hello,   I am running Red Hat 7.3 w/amanda 2.4.2p2-7 and I am trying to write to a hard-drive I have setup amanda to write to hard-drive like so: #AMANDA.CONF dumpcycle 6 days        # the number of days in the normal dump cycle runspercycle 6          # the number of amdump runs in dumpcycle days tapecycle 3 tapes       # the number of tapes in rotation tpchanger "chg-multi"   # the tape-changer glue script #tapedev "/dev/null"    # the no-rewind tape device to be used #rawtapedev "/dev/null" # the raw device to be used (ftape only) changerfile "/etc/amanda/test/chg-multi.conf" #changerdev "/dev/null" #tapetype HP-DAT                # what kind of tape it is (see tapetypes below) tapetype full_to_disk_test          # what kind of tape it is (see tapetypes below) define tapetype full_to_disk_test {    comment "TEST FULL BACKUP TO DISK"    length 9000 mbytes } #CHG-MULTI.CONF multieject 0 gravity 0 needeject 0 ejectdelay 0 statefile /etc/amanda/test/changer-status firstslot 1 lastslot 3 slot 1 file:/home/backup/t1 slot 2 file:/home/backup/t2 slot 3 file:/home/backup/t3 I then put the amanda user and disk group priveleges on the amanda directories as well as the backup directories and have them all set with 766 permissions. Here is my problem...........I keep getting this error when running amlabel: amlabel: could not load slot "1": file:/home/backup/t1: not a device file   Does anyone have an idea as to what may be wrong? Thanks for any time that you spend on this.   Jeremy Aldrich Data Technology Services, Inc. Lakewood, CO 80226 (303) 989-1446 x123 (M-F 7am-4pm MST)
