Hi,

We use amanda-2.5.0 for our backup requirements. 

The backup failed yesterday and the error message received in the email

is as given below. Would like to get some advice about why this error may have 
occurred.

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:    toe.tti.tensilica.com  /vol/vol1/home  lev 
3  FAILED [data write: Broken pipe]    driver: FATAL Don't know how to send 
ABORT command to chunker    chunker: FATAL error [bad command after 
RQ-MORE-DISK: "QUIT"]

 

Also, after running the "ps -ef" command I observe that the "amdump" process is 
still running. The ouput of 

"ps -ef | grep amanda" is as follows:

30318 20267 1 0 Aug16 ? 00:00:00 /usr/lib/amanda/sendbackup
root 20273 20267 93 Aug16 ? 16:00:37 gtar --create --file - --directory 
/vol/vol1/home --one-file-system --listed-incremental 
/var/lib/amanda/gnutar-lists/toe.tti.tensilica.com_vol_vol1_home_3.new --sparse 
--ignore-failed-read --totals .
 
Is it OK if I kill this process using "kill -15 <pid>" or should I
use something like "amcleanup" before I execute today's backup?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Yogesh
