Re: Zmanda acquired from Carbonite by BETSOL

Interesting. My Department also purchased the Enterprise Zmanda license to get NDMP support. However our lastest upgrade on the file server changed the NDMP requirements and Zmanda can no longer use it. I've switched to have Zmanda use NFS, which I could do with regular open source Amanda.

2.5.2p1 failing

start sending in the estimates, and about 3/4's of the time, the server processes just die. The end of the amdump log file just has estimate info at the end, no errors. Any suggestions on where to look would be greatly appreciated. -- George Kelbley System Support Group

strange amrecover behavior

x27;s tape which only has an incremental, its not prompting for the most recent level 0 at all. I can work around it manually, but amrecover has always worked "normally" for me in the past. If anyone has any ideas . . . -- George Kelbley System Support Group C

Re: question about chg-scsi config

letion and the actual "drive ready" condition. This is the delay for which chg-scsi is trying to accomodate. If dd receives an error, keep repeating the dd command until it does work. As a fudge factor, I'd double your measured delay. -- George Kelbley System

2.5.5 question

I used my old amanda.conf with the addition of creating a new dumptype to use calcsize as the only change. I'm gonna go through the debug files in detail next. If anyone has any ideas I'd sure like to hear them. thanks -- George Kelbley System Support Group

Is there any documentation on how to implement the use of the "calc" or "server" options for estimates in 2.5? I don't see anything in the examples. -- George Kelbley System Support Group Computer Science Department University of New Mexico 505-277-6502 Fax: 505-277-6927

Re: Looking for tape drive suggestions

way any time soon. That being said, these days I may well lean towards LTO. I've heard very good things about the hardware compression in LTO drives. Regarding external vs. internal, I strongly prefer external. Tape drives can get hot. -- George Kelbley System Support Gr

remote client failures

ot reboot all my clients. So, does amanda cache the server IP somewhere that I can flush? I been looking around but have't found anything. thanks -- George Kelbley System Support Group Computer Science Department University of New Mexico 505-277-6502Fax: 505-277-6927

NetApp request

with "cannot handle dump", and I think its because it doesn't like the 'S' argument its getting from amanda. Since the 2.4.4 code has been patched for a NetApp, I'm assuming someone is actually using it? -- George Kelbley System Support Group

ndmp and amanda

Re: How to do Incrementals

Its been said repeatedly on this list, that one of the hardest things to learn about amanda, is to trust it. We've been using it in our shop for years and it has *never* let us down. It will tell you through the reports it generates if you are asking too much of it so you can adjust the configur

implementing a changer

We are changing from multiple DLT drives to an Overland Express 10 tape changer. Been looking at the FAQ's and such but any hints would be appreciated. We have the unit cabled up and have verified it can read and write (the easy stuff!). Thanks, George Kelbley, UNM CS Dept.
