I'm looking for a clue for troubleshooting a new amandaclient install. My main problem is that this hasn't been worked on in about 5 years... I have a dozen clients, including two ubuntu GNU/Linux, and we are trying to add one more. This one happens to be Ubuntu/Linux on VMWARE. I can ssh i

2008-04-04 Thread Seth Rothenberg
Greetings. We have been running Amanda on Solaris for about 4 years. About 3 months ago, we added a Linux system to the disklist. Last week, there was a power outage and that host has not been backed up since. It is the only host that is not (or WAS not at the time :-) on a UPS. (All my other ho

Can anyone point me to information (especially if it is in a FAQ) We presently use Amanda to back up 60 disks on 11 servers, distributed across 34 virtual hostnames. Meanwhile, I have a colleague who shopping for an enterprise Central-backup-to-disk solutionand they are apparently willing to

2004-03-03 Thread Seth Rothenberg

re-label any tape?

2001-03-28 Thread Seth Rothenberg
Greetings, amanda-users. I apologize if this topic has been discussed recently (beaten to death, I am sure) but I did too good a job of delegating, and my colleague who set up our backups is away. (and I didn't start reading this list when amanda was working well for us :-) We use a script
