Re: full dumps not getting timestamp

Do the backup succeeded? It looks it failed.

I'm running a fresh install of amanda 2.6.1pl1 (I recently upgraded to

This is after amanda has finished its run.  As you can see, it was dumped
to tape, and has the proper tape label and file number on the tape.
But it's missing the timestamp and size of dump information.

I'm kind of at a loss as to what I've done wrong.  Previously, I've
been using a modified version of 2.4.1, which has worked fine.  For the
new install, I replaced both clients and servers with the new software,
and decided not to copy over the old database, instead starting fresh
(I needed to do a full set of dumps anyway).  It appears to work in all
other ways, but the lack of proper info in the info files prevents the
usual cycle (I can't do incrementals, since the full doesn't have a time).

Any ideas?

amfetchdump: Chunk out of order

2009-12-01 Thread Jean-Francois Malouin
Hi,

I'm testing a DLE restore (it spans 2 tapes) with amfetchdump on a
server running 2.6.1p1, a thing I do once in while and it's the first
time I see this: amfetchdump is requesting the tapes in the wrong
order (the amfetchdump debug file is attached)

su amanda -c ~amanda/sbin/amfetchdump -p -d tape:/dev/nst1 right1 \
gloria /raid/noel 20091201 | tar -xpGf -
2 tape(s) needed for restoration
amfetchdump: Using tapedev tape:/dev/nst1
The following tapes are needed: av24-1_right1_T00041L3
av24-1_right1_T00040L3
Press enter when ready


Insert tape labeled av24-1_right1_T00041L3 in device tape:/dev/nst1 
and press enter, ^D to finish reading tapes

Any ideas what's going on?

This was a known bug in p1 - a sort was happening lexically, instead
of numericaly.  Can you upgrade to p2?

I guess it's this one from the ChangeLog:

2009-05-22  Jean-Louis Martineau martin...@zmanda.com
* restore-src/amfetchdump.c: Fix sort_needed_tapes_by_write_timestamp.

Darn, that's a real bummer. I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and upgrade.
It's just that I have 4 servers to do :(

Thanks for the fast reply,
