Hi All,

I've been using amanda 2.4.1 on Solaris 2.5.1 with a DLT4000 for several
years without many problems. I've recently upgraded to Solaris 9, amanda
2.4.4 and a Sun L280 (6-slot DLT7000). Most of the FS's are VxFS with a
few UFS. I'm just doing some test restores from the first night production
backups and have run into a problem I can't resolve.

The restores from VxFS partitions (via amrecover) work fine. But when I
try to restore from one of the UFS partitions it dies. I select the date,
host and FS, add a file to restore and extract. It ask me to confirm and
then load the correct tape. The tape is already loaded and rewound. As
soon as I type Y for the final (second) confirm it just returnes the
shell prompt. There are no errors in amrecover.*.debug but I get the
following at the end of amindexd.*.debug :

<SNIP>

(names changed to protect the innocent)

Can't see anything similar in the archives and google didn't produce
anything interesting.

Also I'm a bit confused about what amrecover_changer should point to in
amanda.conf. I currently have it set to the same string as changerdev. Is
this correct ?

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers, Adam
