Hi all, I'm using amanda 2.5.1p1-2.1 from Debian/stable.
I have several file systems which take hours to estimate and dump. My amanda.conf contains: etimeout 10800 # 3 hours dtimeout 7200 # 2 hours ctimeout 30 My sendsize log reports the following: $ egrep "estimate (time|size) for" sendsize.20071003113105.debug \ |grep '/permabit/user'|sort ... sendsize[8132]: estimate size for /permabit/user/eh level 0: -1 KB sendsize[8132]: estimate time for /permabit/user/eh level 0: 18804.285 sendsize[8136]: estimate size for /permabit/user/il level 0: 470515080 KB sendsize[8136]: estimate time for /permabit/user/il level 0: 33523.568 sendsize[8137]: estimate size for /permabit/user/mp level 0: 388366900 KB sendsize[8137]: estimate time for /permabit/user/mp level 0: 31830.040 sendsize[8144]: estimate size for /permabit/user/qt level 0: 438384190 KB sendsize[8144]: estimate time for /permabit/user/qt level 0: 33232.123 sendsize[8151]: estimate size for /permabit/user/uz level 0: 502958220 KB sendsize[8151]: estimate time for /permabit/user/uz level 0: 33453.437 sendsize[8301]: estimate size for /permabit/user/assar level 0: 169842670 KB sendsize[8301]: estimate time for /permabit/user/assar level 0: 15124.977 I'm assuming that the number which is not in KB is in seconds. Which means that the lowest one of these took over 5 hours to complete, and I need to increase both (e,d)timeout to at least 9 hours to accomodate the highest of these. The strange thing is that all these estimates *did* complete from what I can tell in the sendsize log. Yet the planner doesn't seem to think they have: $ amstatus offsite | grep getting amanda2:/permabit/release getting estimate amanda2:/permabit/user/eh getting estimate amanda2:/permabit/user/il getting estimate amanda2:/permabit/user/mp getting estimate amanda2:/permabit/user/qt getting estimate amanda2:/permabit/user/uz getting estimate I *assume* it's because of the timeout bug in amanda 2.5.1: $ amadmin offsite config | grep -i timeout ETIMEOUT 220000 DTIMEOUT 210000 CTIMEOUT 190030 Which seems to indicate that planner is going to sit aroud for 61+ hours waiting for estimates to show up ? What I'm not quite certain of though, is why doesn't planner notice that these DLEs have completed? It noticed all the other DLEs have completed their estimate phase, so why not these? Is there something in the logs I can look for to determine how planner notices that sendsize has completed for a given DLE? -- Thanks, Paul
