I changed values in my conf file :

ctimeout 10             # number of seconds to check each servers.
dtimeout 7200
etimeout 1200           # number of seconds per filesystem for estimates.


Here it is what amstatus went out on the screen :

Since it is blocked like that at the same value of 8.43% as usual ????

Try a higher etimeout, this would solve your problem.

Hello,

Here it is my settings in my conf file :

ctimeout 10             # number of seconds to check each servers.
dtimeout 7200
etimeout 600            # number of seconds per filesystem for estimates.

Size of my entry /home/ftp/unix_accounts is more than 5GB. I tested in taking subdirectories of this directory less than 300 MB. It runs correctly.

sendbackup: time 1987.478: index tee cannot write [Connection timed out]
sendbackup: time 1987.478: pid 2222 finish time Wed Jun 11 15:07:48 2003

sendbackup: time 1987.479: 124: strange(?): sendbackup: index tee cannot write [Connection timed out]

The default timeout for data is 1800 seconds, so I suspect increasing
dtimeout in your amanda.conf would fix this :-)
