Hi,

I rpm -qa | grep Amanda shows:
amanda-client-2.4.4p2-3
amanda-server-2.4.4p2-3
amanda-devel-2.4.4p2-3
amanda-2.4.4p2-3

I have  Redhat FC-2 on both  server.

Running ps -fu doe's show process of Amanda and looks luck they are stuck.
Next time I will try to strace to them.

No any core dump.

Looks like Amanda crashed or freezes because the tape is stopping all
activity.
