You can generate the email by hand and safe it in a file instead:

  cd ~amanda/DailySet1
  amreport DailySet1 -l log.XXXXX.X -f save-mail-file


Ah, more interesting, but still difficult to figure out if anything has gone wrong.


At least if you have file named log.datestamp.lvl.
There should also be a file named amdump.1 with a detailed
log of the serverside amdump program.
Any useful error message in that file?

I am not really sure. Maybe this :

driver: result time 6.776 from taper: TAPE-ERROR [cannot overwrite active tape DailySet101]

I have put the other files here, if you care to have a look (I've made '.mail' files using the above 'amreport' command) :

http://reality.sgiweb.org/maxw/tmp/amanda/

I'm guessing I should concentrate on making email work...

Max.



# su amanda -c "/usr/sbin/amadmin DailySet1 info"

Current info for localhost /home:
~  Stats: dump rates (kps), Full:   -1.0,  -1.0,  -1.0
~                    Incremental:   -1.0,  -1.0,  -1.0

~  Dumps: lev datestmp  tape             file   origK   compK secs

Make any sense?


Seems to me like amdump did nothing at all.
