And I just found that the configure disallows the setting of logdir as its a deprecated method.
That damns us to specifying the --logdir on the cli, and I believe we should not use the same path as in amanda.conf, my balance report this morning is blank for this mornings run. amanda@coyote:~/amanda-3.5.1$ /usr/local/sbin/amadmin Daily balance due-date #fs orig MB out MB balance ---------------------------------------------- 11/17 Sat 0 0 0 --- 11/18 Sun 3 17741 15322 -9.7% 11/19 Mon 5 27503 15341 -9.6% 11/20 Tue 1 49240 25295 +49.1% 11/21 Wed 6 17357 14821 -12.6% 11/22 Thu 7 1086 360 -97.9% 11/23 Fri 3 40754 15666 -7.6% 11/24 Sat 2 22109 22109 +30.4% 11/25 Sun 4 68490 43131 +154.3% 11/26 Mon 38 31911 17565 +3.6% ---------------------------------------------- TOTAL 69 276191 169610 16961 (estimated 10 runs per dumpcycle) So I am assuming I nuked one too many planner files when cleaning up from the aborted run. Planner does not leave its log files there in that directory anyway. Is it supposed to? All that left when its done is the amdump-datetime files. Coments welcomed. Thanks everybody.
