Re: Calcsize vs gnutar to do estimates
* John R. Jackson [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Tue, Jan 30, 2001 at 11:41:53PM -0500) 1) Why is gnutar used in stead of calcsize ? For one thing, it knows about exclusion lists. For another, it knows about incrementals. Actually, we might be wrong on both counts. I took a very quick look at the source and there is at least some support for exclusions. According to the amanda-hackers archive at egroups calcsize uses the exclusion code from gnutar. And yes, calcsize knows about incrementals. And I think it can handle incrementals because it is given multiple timestamps to compare against and appears to add up sizes between the values, which would amount to an incremental. True. I think. I've tried it on 3 backup runs and the results were accurate enough for me.

Re: Getting estimates ..
* John R. Jackson [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Tue, Jan 30, 2001 at 07:21:05PM -0500) The sendsize.c file menations a maxdumps= variable .. How can this be set ? With "maxdumps" in amanda.conf. It will cause more than one estimate (on D'Oh ;) separate disks) to be done at the same time, just like during dumping. Note that it will not run multiple estimate levels of the same disk at the same time (I don't think) since that would normally beat on the disk too hard. See my previous posts. calcsize rules in this respect it will simply go over the disk in one go, and keeps track on which files will be dumped at which levbel, and simply gives the results at the end in one go. So running an estimate for 9 levels with calsize will be just as quick (and beat the disk just as hard) as doing an estimate for a level 0 only Gerhard, @jasongeo.com == The Acoustic Motorbiker == -- __O If your watch is wound, wound to run, it will =`\, If your time is due, due to come, it will (=)/(=) Living this life, is like trying to learn latin in a chines firedrill
Re: Has anyone EVER gotten Amanda to work with an Exabyte 10 H ch ange r before?
If STCTL isn't seeing the tapes beind loaded, you're asking on the wrong list. Amanda just uses STCTL. If you can, you might want to upgrade to Solaris 8 and take advantage of the built-in SGEN driver. This way you can bug sun if it doesn't work ;-) On Tue, Jan 30, 2001 at 04:58:35PM -0800, Adams, Christopher wrote: I'm running Solaris 7 in 64 bit mode with the stctl driver, but the stctl driver keeps reporting all the bays empty.

OK,

Well, actually simply a statement following the bump saying
Doing scheduled full backup would alleviate some confusion ;)

It solves a potential crash, a problem with pattern matching in

Nope. All sendbackup supports right now is a single exclude file
spec, in the case of Smbclient. And note that sendsize doesn't
support it at all, so estimates are going to be off. Possibly
significantly off.

It seems like gtar would sometimes die in the middle of backups for no good reason; I don't remember what error message it would output, but it seemed equivalent to, "I can't read this file." Then it would die, in spite of the --ignore-failed-read that amanda gives it. Even worse, it was exiting with a status of 0. At that point, I'd have a partial backup of one filesystem, and amanda thought it was a complete backup. I never figured out a way to tell amanda that one particular backup from a backup run had failed, so I was left with a choice between invalidating the whole night's backups or leaving the bad backup in.

I tried amrestore -p /amanda_holding/20001215/duchamp.tomandandy._Local_Users.0.1 | tar xvf duchamp.tomandandy._Local_Users.0.1 but I got two errors : amrestore: 0: skipping cont dumpfile: date 20001215 host duchamp.tomandandy.com disk /Local/Users lev 0 comp .gztar: tar: duchamp.tomandandy.com._Local_Users.0.1: Not found in archive I understood the last error is because this file is not the tar file but the thing that i don't understand is when I checked amrestore.c source code amrestore is taking /amanda_holding/20001215/duchamp.tomandandy.com._Local_Users.0.1 as tapename, so i don't know if it is because amrestore is trying to find the tape or if to use amrestore to restore files from the holding disk i have to define something else Please if does anybody knows something about this please help me Sandra

Can anyone tell me how I can tell amanda to use more dumpers at once ?
Increase maxdumps in some dumptype of that host.

Re: BSDI changers
I'm not using BSDI but I imagine it's probably similar to FreeBSD. Let's start with a few questions: - What changer script(s) have you tried? chg-multi Would have loved to try chg-scsi, but it doesn't compile on my system. - Have you determined the device name for the changer? sg0 - Does BSDI have chio? If yes, are you able to control the changer with it? Nope. - If no chio, have you tried mtx? Yes, but I gotten anywhere with it. Rick

Part of my dump completes normalls (i.e. /home/usr/appl), however, the run fails for the /home/usr/people directory. Running RedHat Linux w/ Amanda v2.4.2 Which RedHat? Which kernel? Any ideas why this fails? Your chunksize is too high (1024GB), could you try with 1GB.

RE: tapelists permissions being changed...
Ok... Not using amadmin or amlabel... yep - I meant the setuid bit :o) (told you the dumb stick had already been through) amdump.1 looks like: -rw---1 operator root 8131 Feb 1 02:49 amdump.1 operator is the amanda user taper looks like: -rwxr-x---1 root disk32767 Aug 21 10:34 taper amdump: -rwxr-x---1 root disk 3277 Aug 21 10:34 amdump Digging through a working config we run here, and looking at the one in question, I think it's a mix of screwy setuid bits, wrong user ownership of files. So operator.disk now owns all of the files except for the ones that are setuid root. Will see how it goes tonight... Thanks, Chris
