Hi,
I have amanda configured and almost working (thanks to this list).
I have one remaining problem.
I have a disk sda5 that has /usr/ on it.
Inside /usr/ are my /dump directories. I have been wrestling with the
example in disklist
hostA /diskA/all /diskA and the relevant exclude statements.
Hi Kevin,
Are you using Amanda 2.4.3b3? I think there is a bug in the 'exclude'
lists in the definition of dumptypes (including the inline exclude
lists like you're using) for that version. The bug causes the dumps to
fail, at least it does in my case.
How to work around your problem
Thanks John
That is what I am using.
I only what to omit the /dumps folders.
I think I will have to create them in a separate partition.
Thanks for that.
Regards
Kevin

Try this:
1) Create a new dumptype with an exclude list option. For example:
define dumptype compressed-tar-with-excludes
Dear Amanda users,
Life with Amanda is swell. The RH 7.2 localhost, an NT server and two
RH 6.0 systems (one with strict ipchains firewalling) are all being
backed up, and restores have been successfully carried out on each
system. I love a backup system that allows me to do all these things,

I doubt it is an Amanda problem (you might want to also try the linux-managers

suggestions of things to look at anyway:
If this really is going to be an 'omni-server', 128M seems a little
small. Probably not your crash problem

From the for-what-it's-worth dept:
When I updated two of my SuSE 7.2 systems to 8.0, the amanda client no
longer worked. These were systems which I compiled and customized amanda
from source code on. When I ran /var/lib/amandad manually, I got a
message that libreadline 4.2.0 couldn't be found.

Did you specify them as ./dumps (without the quotes of course)
The missing leading dot in your line above says its your exclude
file thats broken. Tar's exludes

If I read your crontab comments correctly, you run amanda every night
but only have a tape in the drive on Friday nights? If so, and if
the Friday night/Sat. AM run is the only time you have crashes, then
I would lean towards either a power supply problem or a scsi driver
problem, although Edwin
Hello Kevin,
Try the latest snapshot of 2.4.3b3 from
http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~martinea/amanda
it fixe a few problem with the exclude.
Don't forget to upgrade the server and the client.
I'm not sure it works if you use the device name in the disklist,
you should try with the directory name.
We're going a bit far afield from what Kevin had originally posted but oh
well.
Are you using version 2.4.2, Gene? Kevin and I are using v2.4.3b3 and
have found the same problem with exclude lists. What I have found (again,
with v2.4.3b3) was that the exclude keyword in a dumptype

No, 2.4.3b3-20020805 right now. And I'm not having any known
problems, none. And other than some broken scripting in the
Ok, now that's interesting... I'll agree that the fact that you're using
