now it seems that amanda has problems with files, changing during amdump :-( No, Amanda does not have problems with this. It's your backup program (e.g. GNU tar or dump) that does. What exactly is it saying that makes you think it is having a problem? Thorsten John R. Jackson, Technical

did amanda just do a full dump to holding disk? Yes. And it's still not bumping like we want. I don't know what else to tell you. You might as well comment out the "reserve" line again since it's not helping and is in fact hurting by using up more holding disk space than it should. Denise E.

It does say "index NO". ... Well, that would certainly explain things. :-) How do I change this? Add "index yes" to the dumptype. If you want indexing for everything, change the "global" dumptype and that should apply to all the other dumptypes, assuming any you defined yourself include it.
