I'm using AMANDA 2.51p2 and gtar 1.16. I want to make AMANDA ignore any error 1 response from gtar and react like it has not FAILED.
This would make AMANDA accept the backup as successful with STRANGE and then AMANDA wouldn't have to run a second attempt in the same run and then retry the next run. This is the error I see: | Total bytes written: 129261885440 (121GiB, 2.0MiB/s) sendbackup: error [/usr/local/bin/gtar returned 1] How can I do that? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm using GNU tar 1.16 >From NEWS for GNU tar 1.16: version 1.16 - Sergey Poznyakoff, 2006-10-21 * After creating an archive, tar exits with code 1 if some files were changed while being read. Previous versions exited with code 2 (fatal error), and only if some files were truncated while being archived. I think that due to the fact that the e-mail files are in constant flux I have a very low chance of not getting an error code 1 no matter when I run the backup. -- Mark Hennessy
