I can't remember if this was mentioned, but what is the amanda
version of the client giving the error message?
I believe you need 2.4.3 or later to specify a "diskname" and
"diskdevice". In 2.4.2 the syntax of a DLE would allow only a
"diskname".
Because the diskname should be unique in a disklist file, the
workaround in that time was to add mulitple "/." to the end of
a diskname, like this:
some.host.org /my/diskname dumptype-with-excludes
some.host.org /my/diskname/. dumptype-with-other-excludes
some.host.org /my/diskname/./. dumptype-with-yet-other-excludes
That is, is you don't want/can't upgrade the client to a recent
amanda version.
