Got me scratching what little hair I have left. I re-installed the 20091217 snapshot about an hour ago.
Both pass an 'su amanda -c "amcheck Daily"' command just fine, reporting that they cannot get a response from 'shop', which if I put on some heavy boots and toddle out to the shop, I will find that machine is stuck in post, doing a two tone continuous beep. Shut it off for 5 secs, and it boots right up again. No ups on that one now at all, so I'm assuming a middle of the night 1 second glitch, that doesn't bother this ups protected box, is killing it, or its freezing to death since the shop isn't well insulated & only has one small heater plugged in that can hold the shop maybe 10F warmer than ambient. I'll see, if tonight's run is normal (except for the missing shop) then I'll put the 20091218 snapshot back in for tomorrow nights run.
