Package: amanda-server Version: 1:2.5.2p1-4 Severity: normal File: chg-manual
When using runtapes > 1 and chg-manual amcheck and amdump don't accept the current tape but instead keep asking for new tapes. This appears to be because amanda wants, after processing the tapes, to go back to the first one but chg-manual doesn't go backwards and acts like a 99 tape changer. The solution is to have chg-manual tell amanda it is a gravity stacker. # Pretend we're a gravity stacker backward=0 info() { echo " -> rewind $tape" >> $logfile $MT $MTF $tape rewind >> $logfile 2>&1 echo " -> status $tape" >> $logfile used=`$MT $MTF $tape status 2>&1 | tee -a $logfile | $EGREP "$ONLINEREGEX"` echo " -> loaded <$used>" >> $logfile if [ -z "$used" ];then answer="0 $lastslot $backward" else answer="$slot $lastslot $backward" fi echo "Exit -> $answer" >> $logfile echo "$answer" exit 0 } -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages amanda-server depends on: ii amanda-common 1:2.5.2p1-4 Advanced Maryland Automatic Networ ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20071201cvs-3 A simple mail user agent ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20080830-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.2-3 GNU readline and history libraries amanda-server recommends no packages.
