Can anyone help me?
What happens if you amcheck or amdump only these servers? Does it always happen with the same clients or does that vary? Does it only happen with specific clients: this and that OS, version of amanda, or so. What is your estimate timeout for that config? maybe share the amanda.conf What version of amanda on the server? ... and ... ;-) I assume JLM would suggest to debug that somehow by increasing log levels etc.
