Hi, I'm setting up a new backup server with amanda 3.5.2 on CentOS 7
with vtapes. I've setup the vtapes directories, created the job and
added the dlc, checked permissions, then run amcheck and it shows no
errors. However when I run amdump, only one of the dlc gets backed up,
the other ones give a "can't do degraded dump without holding disk"
error. The config is:
amanda.conf
org "monitoreo10_diario" # your organization name for
reports
dumpuser "amandabackup" # the user to run dumps under
mailto "yyyyy@xxxxx" # space separated list of operators at your
site
dumpcycle 1week # the number of days in the normal dump cycle
tapecycle 8 # the number of tapes in rotation
runspercycle 7 # the number of amdump runs in dumpcycle days
define changer my_vtapes {
tpchanger "chg-disk:/backups/amanda/vtape/diarios/monitoreo10_diario/"
property "num-slot" "8"
property "auto-create-slot" "yes"
}
dtimeout 1800 # number of idle seconds before a dump is aborted

Only one of the dlc gets backed up (/usr/local/bin) even though they are
all on the same host (the amanda server). I've tried running jobs with
dlc on other servers and the result is the same, only one of the dlc
gets backed up
Any idea what could be causing this?
Yours
Pablo
