When doing an extract tar does read on to the end of the tar file before
exiting, but "hours and hours" seems like a long time to wait for
that...
Is tar still running (e.g. what does "top" or "ps" show)? If so, what
does strace on the tar process show? Do any other amanda (sub)processes
exist on the system at this time?
I reran that now and have to add some more information:
That size value increases up to the mentioned 12472320 kb ... and until
then tar is running.
Then the tar file seems to end, and amrecover says:
/bin/gzip:
/bin/gzip:
gzip: stdin: decompression OK, trailing garbage ignored
tar has stopped then,also no more gzip process visible.
The tested DLE is encrypted and compressed. Yes, redundant ... I can
change that in the future.
The first part gets read perfectly, but it seems that the end of the
tarball crashes things somehow.
I remember that error from mailing list threads .. I will research later
when I am back at my office.
