Hi all,
I've relatively new to Amanda, and playing with backups in general. I've been able to get Amanda to back up my entire server farm (important bits only, no full OS backups), but I'm running into a problem.. Well, possibly a problem. I get this in my Amanda report : 

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
 mail1      /etc lev 1 STRANGE
I understand, basically, what that means. In essence, the files are changing and/or being removed before the tar command finishes. So, what is the proper way to deal with this? Is this something to be concerned with? 

Thanks!

Jason
