is this just the estimate timeout summary?
# man amanda.conf
-> etimeout
Increase the etimeout value.
ok, i had it to a high value but somehow put it back to 300, i will
set it higher for todays run and see what happens, how can i guess the
value i need to set it to?.

"Strange" means that something happend during the backup, you should
notice. E. g. a file changed during the read, or like in your case
"Cannot stat: No such file or directory", the file is gone before it
could be backuped.
Ok.., I get it.. :)
How can i turn off the estimate?! Is it bad
to turn it off?
I think you can't. The entry in the manpage doesn't says anything about
disabling.
Hmm you seem to be right, there are only different ways on how to
estimate things (client, calcsize, server), maybe i can play around
with these... but I first try to set the estimate timeout to a higher
level.....
What does gtar mean with:
Warning: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
> Why should the file or directory not be there anymore?
The file was there during the estimation, but not when the backup was
done. This often happens here on the mail files, because sometimes
users delete mails during backup runs.
Ok since I started the backup during the afternoon, this might be
very likely the case....
All in all if i look at the backup summary,
it seems to be "ok" except /dev/sdb1 which failed?!
Have you successfully run
# amcheck {Setname}
before your backup? If not, what kind of problems were reported?
backup@gdasvr99:/etc/amanda/MonthlyDisk1$ amcheck MonthlyDisk1
