Re: Amanda time

In the year 2003....

It is the date in the subject line of the mail AND the filename of the log (log.20031121.0)

I'm looking at the file from bash-shell (if I 'touch' a file; it gets the correct date)

The content of the log : (top 2 lines)
START driver date 20031121
START planner date 20031121

The top line of amdump.1
amdump: start at Fri Nov 21 00:30:28 CET 2003

In november amanda was not yet installed on the server, so it's not an old file
If i create an amreport in a file, that file gets the correct date.

Weird, huh?

In what year :-) Is it the date in the mail report Subject line? Or is the date that you see for a command like: $ ls -l ~amanda/ConFig/log.20040409.0 How do you look at that file? Using NFS or Samba maybe? The first line of that file also contains a date: $ head -1 ~amanda/ConFig/log.20040409.0 START driver date 20040409 The first line of amdump.1 also contains a datetime stamp. $ head ~amanda/ConFig/amdump.1 amdump: start at Fri Apr 9 00:04:01 CEST 2004 Maybe you're just looking in the wrong directory (one that was used 20 Nov 2003 for doing a test?) > The date/time on the machine is correct. > > amreport also shows this wrong date. AFAIK, there is only a date in the Subject header of the mail, and on the postscript label. PS. "owner-amanda-users AT amanda DOT org" is not interested in these kind of msgs.
