I saw this morning this result of amadmin command on
one  server :

2004-04-20 client      /space1/processed  0 ---             0 FAILED
(driver) [dump to tape failed]
2004-04-20 client      /space1/processed  0 ---             0 FAILED
(dumper) ["data write: Connection reset by peer"]
2004-04-20 client      /space1/processed  0 TAPE_27         1 OK

As amanda server wasn't able to write on selected tape, it changed it
and was able to write on the following tape.

But when I use amoverview command here it is the result :

client         /space1/processed     4  4  5  0  1  2  3  4  4 EE  1
~ 2  3 EE

As you can see, it is EE code and not as you explained me EE0.

Could you explain me why it's like that ?

|
|
| amoverview is a summary of the output of "amadmin conf find".
| When the last column of amadmin find contains anything other than
"OK",
| amoverview translates this into 'E' for that day.
|
| A number indicates the level of backup and it succeeded.
| An "E" indicates an error for that day.
| You get an 'E' for all errors, like failed to connect, datatimeout,
| computer crashed, etc, but also for failing to write to tape.
|
| You can have an "E" followed by a number if a filesystem ran into
| end-of-tape once (gives an 'E', and later that day, you flush it to a
| second tape (a number: the level, indicating success).  If the flush
| failed too, you get a double "EE" for that day.
|
| You can also have a double code if you have two tapes in the
changer and
| amanda failed to write to tape the first time because it hit end of
tape
| (resulting in "E0", for a full, "E1" for an incremental etc)
| or twice with error ("EE"), and may a successfull flush afterwards
| giving maybe "EE0".  (I've never that last one happen).
