I honestly haven't changed anything. The only thing that happened was that
I had to run amflush on July 31, because for some reason the amanda-related
services on the backup server seemed to have hung (but that's an entirely
different issue).
That si just a wilkd guess, but how about the
the amflush has freed space
on your holding disk that had been wasted for ages?

What I don't understand is the increase in dump time and tape

What did change was that I moved the server from temporarily sitting on the
floor to where it will now stay full-time. So it was a shutdown,

We have more and more prob with the backup : it takes more then 14 h.

Frederic,
What are the tuning parameters ?
Are you bumping into an amanda imposed bandwidth limit ?
What are the settings for max dumpers and number of jobs
you can run at one time for each client ?
What level of SW compression are you using ?
On Fri, Jul 09, 2004 at 10:22:46AM -0400, Joshua
More holding space is going to give you the biggest boost.
And be sure to have fast holding disks. LTO drives eat data at
20-30MB/s if your disk can send it that fast; in my setup (currently
400GB/night, and struggling to finish in 24h!), I've only two IDE
holding disks, and the combined

Careful study of amplot graphs helps you point out bottlenecks quickly.

thanks for the replies !!
There's no bandwidth limit.
where can I find the dumpers and number of jobs info ?
For the SW compression in vary depending of the server/parition.

Maybe not by the physical network, but maybe you have
weird parameters in amanda.conf.

Is amanda doing compression? I backed up some really slow Suns and doing
local compression totally killed the performance of the backup. Also the
first time you do a backup of a system it does a level 0 (full) backup.
Also I find its better to add one server a day to amanda so you

Everytime I saw such problem it was network interface full-duplex

What speed do you have by pulling data from the client to the backup
server with regular ftp (or scp) ?

The Bandwith I put in the amanda config is 5000 kbitsec ...
The bandwidth number in Amanda has very little to do with how fast it
will actually transfer data (which is confusing, to put it mildly :-).
When Amanda estimates how large each dump is, it also looks at how fast
they ran in the past
