Hi all,
I recently added a new client to my backup rotation. The first night all went well. Last night however the client did not get backed up. According to the report, the client was off-line. This morning, I got the amcheck error report stating: ERROR: ebeneezer NAK: amandad busy When I logged into ebeneezer, ps revealed that amandad and sendsize were still running: # ps -auxw |grep amanda amanda 2378 0.0 0.3 2176 860 ? S 11:49 0:00 amandad amanda 2379 0.0 0.3 1832 772 ? S 11:49 0:00 /usr/local/amanda/libexec/selfcheck an strace -p of the amandad process reveals: # strace -p 2378 select(6, [0 5], NULL, NULL, NULL <unfinished ...> an strace of the selfcheck process hangs (i.e., it doesn't return anything) The debug logs don't seem to reveal anything (I've attached them in case anyone else sees something I missed). The client is a RH7.1 system running xinetd with user=amanda, group=disk. Amanda is a member of both groups amanda and disk. The server is a debian 2.2 system. Both systems are running amanda 2.4.2p1 Thanks for any insight anyone can provide! Seeya, Paul
