I don't think this is the problem, but I do not see a "record yes" setting. I wonder if that is needed to ensure amanda knows when the last full dump was done? It is needed for "dump", but I'm uncertain about gnutar.
I think you hit the nail right on the head. For gnutar, amanda uses the /etc/amandates files similar to the file /etc/dumpdates used by dump. If that file is empty, then amanda thinks it never did a level 0 dump, and hence does it now. However, with "record no" that file is never updated either, resulting in always level 0 for those filesystems missing in the file. I have to time to try to this out, but I'm interested if this theory is correct. -- Paul Bijnens, xplanation Technology Services Tel +32 16 397.511 Technologielaan 21 bus 2, B-3001 Leuven, BELGIUM Fax +32 16 397.512 http://www.xplanation.com/ email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *********************************************************************** * I think I've got the hang of it now: exit, ^D, ^C, ^\, ^Z, ^Q, ^^, * * F6, quit, ZZ, :q, :q!, M-Z, ^X^C, logoff, logout, close, bye, /bye, * * stop, end, F3, ~., ^]c, +++ ATH, disconnect, halt, abort, hangup, * * PF4, F20, ^X^X, :D::D, KJOB, F14-f-e, F8-e, kill -1 $$, shutdown, * * init 0, kill -9 1, Alt-F4, Ctrl-Alt-Del, AltGr-NumLock, Stop-A, ... * * ...
