Hi,
I'm using Amanda for 7 years now, and now the version 2.6.* does not
compile anymore on linux.
So I tried versions 3.2.* and 3.3.* , and every version I tried it
segfaults on some point.
On amlabel, or amcheck or amdump.
I get errors like TypeError in method 'critical' , argument 1 of type

As I wrote about issues with samba backup, I can now say that backup
doesnt stall if I enable compression on server (amanda server), and
regulary stalls without compression.
Has to be something wrong with pipeing to tar.

Hi,
I checked and there is plenty of space on all drives, and samba does not
log anything on smbclient behalf.
And I dont run samba server.
Strange that the other amada config dumps fine, and this stalls

I switched from one tape to two tapes per run, and now I have problems
with changer. It does not use the next free tape like it should, but it
reuses the last used tape. Also it tries to use tapes that are marked
with no-reuse.
I use 2.4.5 version. Should I downgrade or patch?
regards,
yes. should it be 2 ?
But I want to use everyday full backups on new tapes, in cycle of
reusable tapes

It should be the number of tapes you have in a cycle, AFAIK.

So you want full backups every day, onto a different tape every day?

Usually when I have long directory names or with some national characters.

I found out that if I run more than one samba dump (smbclient) at once, the
smb jobs get stucked.
If I run them serialy (spindle) it works much better (probaby ok).
There must be some issues with multiple simultaneus smb jobs, but I cant
tell what is wrong.
Also the jobs have to be a little bit

Tape config fails. Yes I have holding disks, and this config worked time
ago.
I do not have always timeouts in the log. Sometimes the smbclient just stall
after some hour of downloading data.
It seems like the smbclient and tar stop comunicating or something like
that.
It maybe also the problem
I think I have a similar problem, but I didnt detect which file is causing
problems.
Also in one setup/config it signals the error and on the other config not.
Everything is the same except the backup medium (tape, disk)

I backup some smb shares. It worked nice for a while but then this strange

Where should i start with implementing a new kind of dumper?
For some special database for example.
I read the dumper-api doc, but the date is pretty old. Is it up to date?
Also the code is pretty complicated to understand from source. Can someone
give me an overview?
thanks,

Samba3rc1.
i tried to exclude
smbclient //server/share -TcaqrX backup.tar *.doc
and it worked
then tried to exclude pagefile.sys
smbclient //server/share -TcaqrX backup.tar pagefile.sys
didnt work / but it is not a proper regular expression. this is ok.

I mentioned some time ago that it would be nice to have a possibility to
trigger some jobs before backup is started. Jobs should be triggered on the
client.
It would be nice to trigger backups of ACL, maybe ntbackup jobs,
I know that this can be done with ssh but it is not so nice.
speed should be much higher

Is it possible to create a config with rait writing and where the tape part
is done with some rotation (like few tapes with full backup) and one disk
tape with everyday full backup.
In this way I would have a fast recover procedure for the last day and do

Im trying to recover some file from file based backup.
Im using the changer for rotating backup folders.
The problem is that amrecover wants to rewind the tape, but it tries to

which is the real file backup tape.

I still cant figure out why I dont see files from incremental backup.
I see only files from full backup with amrecover ls command.

Hi!
I can do a tapeless backup but only one revision. New backup overwrites the
old one.
I saw postings how to use changer device but that was for version that didnt
have file device.
What is the strategy to have for example 7 daily backups level 0 that go to
diferent places?
Regards,
Gregor
Ok, I have done some symlinks to data directories and create a few tapes
with amlabel.
I create backup, first full and then incremental. It works ok.
Before incremental I add some file to the directory that I backup.
Then when I try to recover files I do not get this additional file that is
in
of 2.4.3 version and
2.5.0 version, snapshots. I always get the errors. Not always the same, but
primary I want to enable the stable version.
