Hi List !

Were great anyone could help ...

We are experiencing strange errors at the time.
We have an amand-server that backs up about 30 hosts a night.
Most of the time it went well, but now there are very often etrange errors.

It sais:

xxxxx /opt lev 0 FAILED 20040606[could not connect to xxxxx]

And that on about 15 of 30 hosts. The more interesting is, that the first filesystems (or dle´s) are fine, only some of them are failing. Next day everything is fine, or other filesystems on other hosts are failing .. !?
On some days
There seem to be no networking problems, all hosts are 100 Mbit connected by a 1 Gbit HP Switch separated in VLANS. The amanda-server is a 1GHz Pentium 3 with 2 2TB RAids attached to it, so Space should not be the problem. I wrote a little script, that monitors wih amdump the backup every 3 minutes in a file named date-time, but the output doesnt´t give any hints ... Neither the amanda-server, nor the clients tell anything in the log-files ... !?

Would it be an idea to set (if existent) a higher debug-level at the amanda-server, and where should i do that ?

Thanks in Advance ...
