this is not the case at all even with a single tape if it hits the end
of the tape. then that filesystem failed to dump to the tape. I think
there is something wrong with the planner myself. I've even specified
that my tapes are 1GB smaller and I still hit the end of the tape
sometimes.

Just completed my first amanda backup successfully, mostly. However, I
got an error on three of my five hosts about "missing results". Looking
this up in the searchable archives led me to the
/tmp/amanda/sendsize.*.debug file, and this showed that I had a
directory named /etc/amandates, instead of

I have compiled the the 2.5 using the rsh security option. If you replace
the path to the rsh with the ssh executable in the common-src/rshxxx.c
it should work using ssh. the auth parameter in the amanda.conf file
should be

Is there any FAQ that describes how to Create an Index file from tape?
thanks
I have just recently built a new backup server, CCG CY-10e jukebox, Exb-8505
on a SPARC20 running RH6.2, amanda-2.4.2pl2
Backups seem to have been working fine, but I just went to restore a file and
got the following. The file is obviously in the index as amrecover found it

Hi Kevin:
It seems to be a problem with the .amandahosts file. As amcheck
detects an error while verifying client access.

Which machine(s) is your .amandahosts file on? It is supposed to be on the
client machine (it can also be on the server machine if the server gets
backed up also).
Make sure that you have an amandahosts file on each client, and that it is
in the amanda home directory. Look at the /etc/passwd
Hi,
your .amandahosts has to read
admin.jhuccp.orgamanda
admin.jhuccp.orgroot
no more, no less,
first line is for backup,
second for restore
hope it helps

Take a look in /tmp/amanda/amandad/debug. The config/defs section at the
beginning has a bunch of flags in it. Look for "BSD_SECURITY" and
"USE_AMANDAHOSTS". If you have the former and not the latter, everything
that's been said about .amandahosts really applies to .rhosts, and no amount

The home directory in /etc/passwd for amanda was /var/lib/amanda. When
I changed it to /home/amanda, it worked great. For those of you
interested, here's the /home/amanda/.amandahosts file that's working
(with two additional hosts added and working):
admin:/home/amanda # ca
Hi,
my amreport is segfaulting in a working configuration since I
mistakenly set dumpcycle to days and setting it back to 4 after I
wondered about missing level 0's. I'm still in the first cycle after
the change. It's OK if this error will grow out after one cycle, but
will it happen?

Thank you for your clarifying question, Jon.
Yes, the machine name is "admin" and the user name is "amanda".
I tried:
admin amanda
admin.jhuccp.org amanda
admin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
admin.jhuccp.org [EMAIL PROTECTED]
So far, no joy.
Oddly enough, I've gone ahead and added two other hosts. When
Hello all,
I'm trying to get the win32 client up and running. I followed Kurt Yoder's
instructions (below), but amcheck is still timing out. I'm almost certain
that it has to do with the tcp/ip ports amanda is using. My server was
compiled with the following:
--with-portrange=5,50100 --with
Tried all that and same error
Joshua has commented that there may be issues if there's no tape in the
drive, which is our case, as we'd like to do normally nightly backups
and use this as the archive to be moved to somewhere else and kept for
ever...
If this doesn't work "I'll be back(tm)"
Thank you to all the generous folks who have given me suggestions.
Unfortunately, I still can't get it to work. I still get the same error

Somewhat random question -- there *is* a tape in the drive when you run
amdump, right? IOW, these aren't degraded mode dumps, right?

IIRC, the log files are needed by amrecover, and I'm not sure abo
at last, the block size fixed the backups, using 4096 was the answer.
the reason why it still looked like it had failed was because the second
tape had stuff on it from a previous attempt that failed. so amverify
