Greetings, I'm testing amanda 2.4.4p2 on mix of FreeBSD stable/current and debian stable/testing boxes, and one debian testing box is acting up. It has a single partition, and I want to dump its /root and /etc directories. The /etc dump seems to work fine, but when it dumps /root, it takes the entire partition. This does not happen on any of the other four machines. None of the other machines has just a single partition, if it matters.
I've attached the disklist and the backup report. Any pointers, etc. would be much appreciated. Thanks, Russell ************************************************************* Here's the disklist. Commented out entries work just fine on my other systems. I've tried all of the possible naming schemes on brower, but they all fail the same way. #brower /etc / { # comp-root-tar #} brower /root / { comp-root-tar } #aristotle /dev/hda1/etc /dev/hda1 { # comp-root-tar } #1 local #aristotle /dev/hda1/root /dev/hda1 { # comp-root-tar #} 1 local #feyerabend /dev/twed0s1a/etc /dev/twed0s1a { # comp-root-tar #} #feyerabend /dev/twed0s1a/root /dev/twed0s1a { # comp-root-tar #} #quine /dev/ad0s1a/etc /dev/ad0s1a { # comp-root-tar #} #quine /dev/ad0s1a/root /dev/ad0s1a { # comp-root-tar #} #leopold /dev/hda1/etc /dev/hda1 { # comp-root-tar #} #leopold /dev/hda1/root /dev/hda1 { # comp-root-tar #} ************************************************************* Here's the backup report, there's only a few MB in brower's /root directory, and from the error output it's clearly dumping outside of /root. These dumps were to tapes pinyon17, pinyon1. The next 3 tapes Amanda expects to used are: a new tape, a new tape, a new tape. The next 3 new tapes already labelled are: pinyon2, pinyon3, pinyon4.
