Documentation also says that the default spindle value is "-1" so unless you've changed it you already have no spindle restriction.
Also, the error seems to indicate that Amanda didn't even tried to dump these DLE. The error seems to occured during DLE size estimation. At first sight, I would say that Amanda only had the time to estimate the size of 1 of your 3 DLE. A possible solution would be to increase estimate timeout (parameter "etimeout") etimeout int Default: 300 seconds. Amount of time per disk on a given client that the planner step of amdump will wait to get the dump size estimates. For instance, with the default of 300 seconds and four disks on client A, planner will wait up to 20 minutes for that machine. A negative value will be interpreted as a total amount of time to wait per client instead of per disk. But that might well be something else.

Hi guys, This is error reporting in my email: abc.com /usr/local/apache2 lev 0 FAILED [disk /usr/local/apache2, all estimate timed out] abc.com /home lev 0 FAILED [disk /home, all estimate timed out] abc.com /var/lib/mysql lev 1 STRANGE I can't dump for multiple backups at the same time but amcheck can. If I comment the line for /var/lib/mysql and /home, I can dump the /usr/local/apache2. If I run three of them, I can't. I found out about spindle in http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Amanda#DESCRIPTION. It stated Amanda will not run multiple backups at the same time on the same spindle, unless the spindle number is -1, which means there is no spindle restriction. I am not understand about it. this is my disklist: abc.com /var/lib/mysql hard-disk-tar abc.com /usr/local/apache2 hard-disk-tar abc.com /home hard-disk-tar How to edit disklist file to make it run multiple backups? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/how-to-let-amanda-run-multiple-backups-at-the-same-time--tf4168307.html#a11858873 Sent from the Amanda - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
