I have a machine that I have several directories I'm backing up. Most
are small, but a couple are large. The two largest ones are both bigger
than the holding disk. For those two, amstatus prints out some perl
errors: (edited for length)
bash-2.05$ amstatus DB

I haven't had a chance to dig into the logic yet, and I'm going to Vegas
tomorrow morning. A good present would be to get home and find someone
figured this out for me :)
The code in question is this:
elsif($dump_started{$hostpart} == 1 &&
$dump_finished{$hostpart} != 1) {
if( defined $opt_dumping ) {
printf "%-40s%2d", "$host:$partition", $level{$hostpart};
printf "%8dk", $esize{$hostpart};
printf " dumping %8dk", $size{$hostpart};
if($size{$hostpart} != 0) {
printf " (%6.2f%%)", (100.0*$size{$hostpart})/$esize{$hostpart};
}
if( defined
$starttime ) {
print "(", &showtime($dump_time{$hostpart}), ")";
}
print "\n";
}
$dupartition++;
$dusize += $size{$hostpart};
$duesize += $esize{$hostpart};
}
Every line with "$size{$hostpart}" is what it's complaining about.
Looking earlier in the file I can see where the logic is at work to
decide when to set $size{$hostpart} (which implicitly declares it), but
didn't sit down long enough to try and figure out the flaw in the logic.
My gut reaction is that this particular dump target is larger than the
holding disk or that the dump target produces a value larger than the
regex is designed to handle (but the latter seems a little less likely
than the former).
