Re: no space left on device during amflush

The Amanda server is running Solaris, so it doesn't have /proc. But I
checked /etc/system and found this:
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=268435456
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100
set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=10
set semsys:seminfo_semmns=70
set semsys:seminfo_semmni=100
set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=70
set semsys:seminfo_semopm=100
set semsys:seminfo_semvmx=32767
forceload: sys/shmsys
If these settings worked before, how come amflush is failing now?
Thanks,
