hi All, I run 25 schedules per night, and only 1 ... this one ... gives me some heart-ache. I know it must be something other than DNS but all of the error messages are trying to send me down that garden path. The amanda host machine is "windamere", and schedule6 backs up "intrap". I can log onto both machines and easily do forward and reverse lookups on both hosts, so I know
there is no DNS issue. --------------------------------------------------------------- windamere[26]% nslookup intrap Server: gps.dlwc.nsw.gov.au Address: 172.24.16.91 Name: intrap.dlwc.nsw.gov.au Address: 172.24.16.32 windamere[27]% nslookup 172.24.16.32 Server: gps.dlwc.nsw.gov.au Address: 172.24.16.91 Name: intrap.dlwc.nsw.gov.au Address: 172.24.16.32 windamere[28]% -------------------------------------------------------------- intrap[1]# nslookup windamere Server: gps.dlwc.nsw.gov.au Address: 172.24.16.91 Name: windamere.dlwc.nsw.gov.au Address: 172.24.16.86 intrap[2]# nslookup 172.24.16.86 Server: gps.dlwc.nsw.gov.au Address: 172.24.16.91 Name: windamere.dlwc.nsw.gov.au Address: 172.24.16.86 intrap[3]# ---------------------------------------------------------------- Here's the output from the schedule 6 dump - planner is NOT HAPPY about something .... any ideas what's going wrong???: Subject: schedule6 AMANDA MAIL REPORT FOR March 5, 2004 Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2004 00:15:07 +1100 (EST) From: Amanda Archiving Server <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] These dumps were to tape schedule6-THU.
