I see this error several times:
sendsize[2308]: time 92.723: runtar: error [must be invoked by amanda]
What user is running amdump?

Well, it -looked- like it was fixed. A few days ago I asked for help on an
amanda problem on one of our nodes. Backups were failing- the mail report
included the line:
node1 / lev -1 FAILED [no estimate]
And other messages in the node's log files such as "runtar: error [must be
invoked by amanda]" which I'd not seen before.
I reinstalled an amanda rpm and that night's backup ran fine, but the
following evening's failed with the same message. Yesterday I downloaded
the current amanda tarball, uninstalled the rpm, and installed 2.4.5 from
scratch. Last night's backup failed the same way. I'm beginning to suspect
that it's not an amanda problem :-)
I'm only backing up the "/" partition, and there seems to me to be too
many log files being generated for a single instance...
Anyway, if a kind person could take a look at the following from last
night, and give me any suggestions I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
