Greetings; Something changed in the 3.13.* kernels, which caused tar-1.22 to hang, using 100% of a core, while doing an estimate run for amanda.
So I pulled yur tarball of 1.27 and installed it. It passed all the correct make check stuff. But since reconfiguring amanda, rebuilding and reinstalling it because tar was now in /usr/local/bin, I am getting STRANGE reports in the email amanda sends me. STRANGE DUMP DETAILS: /-- coyote /lib lev 0 STRANGE sendbackup: info BACKUP=APPLICATION sendbackup: info APPLICATION=amgtar sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/bin/gzip -dc |/usr/local/libexec/amanda/application/amgtar restore [./file-to-restore]+ sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz sendbackup: info end ? /usr/local/bin/tar: ./init/rw: directory is on a different filesystem; not dumped | Total bytes written: 1990912000 (1.9GiB, 2.7MiB/s) sendbackup: size 1944250 sendbackup: end \-------- /-- coyote /var lev 1 STRANGE sendbackup: info BACKUP=APPLICATION sendbackup: info APPLICATION=amgtar sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/usr/local/libexec/amanda/application/amgtar restore [./file-to-restore]+ sendbackup: info end ? /usr/local/bin/tar: ./lock: directory is on a different filesystem; not dumped ? /usr/local/bin/tar: ./run: directory is on a different filesystem; not dumped ? /usr/local/bin/tar: ./lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs: directory is on a different filesystem; not dumped | Total bytes written: 357847040 (342MiB, 22MiB/s) sendbackup: size 349460 sendbackup: end \-------- The 4 items are NOT links to a different filesystem, and are just normal subdirs at least as far as an ls -laR listing is reporting. Is there some new option that amanda needs to pass to this new tar-1.27 to make it behave as the old v-1.22 one?
