Hi all,
I've been using Amanda v2.5 for years an switched to v3.3.6 on freshly
installed FC21 server and all clients (SLES11) a few days ago. My
configuration contains the definition
define dumptype my-dump {
global
auth "ssh"
ssh_keys "/var/lib/amanda/.ssh/id_rsa"
program "DUMP"
index
priority high
compress client fast
}
and disklist entry like
foo.bar.com /home1 my-dump
Backing up works like a charm, but now I tried to restore a directory from
foo.bar.com:/home1 locally on my server:
# amrecover -C daily
AMRECOVER Version 3.3.6. Contacting server on 10.2.19.3 ...
220 amanda AMANDA index server (3.3.6) ready.
...
amrecover> sethost foo.bar.com
amrecover> setdate 2015-03-20
amrecover> setdisk /home1
amrecover> add ako
amrecover> lcd /tmp/amanda
amrecover> extract
Extracting files using tape drive changer on host 10.2.19.3.
The following tapes are needed: daily-23
daily-2
Extracting files using tape drive changer on host 10.2.19.3.
Load tape daily-23 now
Continue [?/Y/n/s/d]? y
Restoring files into directory /tmp/amanda
All existing files in /tmp/amanda can be deleted
Continue [?/Y/n]? y
set owner/mode for '.'? [yn] y
And this is where my trouble begins! Some files have been successfully
restored, but my response "y" is not processed. I see some zombie processes
in the process table. Pressing Ctrl-C terminates the entire restore. I don't
really care too much about the permissions, but "amrecover" didn't pick the
second tape!
First I tried with my password-less SSH setup, which worked fine in the
past, later I switched to "bsdtcp", but this doesn't make any difference.
What's the problem and - even more important - what can I do?
Best regards,
Michael.
