Greetings.
We have been running Amanda on Solaris for about 4 years.
About 3 months ago, we added a Linux system to the disklist.
Last week, there was a power outage and that host has not been 
backed up since.

It is the only host that is not  (or WAS not at the time :-) on a UPS.
(All my other hosts are in the data center :-)

amcheck looks like text below.

(I think the ERROR: is because production backup is still running).

Does anyone have any suggestions?
Is t here a command-line that I can issue on host "eair"
that will do the same test but give me feedback like a traceroute?
(host jmon1 is pingable, etc as can be seen at the bottom.)

Thanks
Seth
