Hi Amanda,
Hi List,

I've got SuSE 8.0 with installed Amanda 2.4.2p2 and after reading "the list", I downloaded and installed Amanda 2.4.4 for tapeless backup.
When I run "amcheck normal" the results are:

Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
amcheck-server: fatal slot 13: file:/backup1/amandadumps/tape13: not a device file
ERROR: new tape not found in rack
       (expecting a new tape)
NOTE: skipping tape-writable test
NOTE: info dir /etc/amanda/normal/curinfo: does not exist
NOTE: it will be created on the next run
Server check took 0.387 seconds

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
Client check: 1 host checked in 0.182 seconds, 0 problems found

(brought to you by Amanda 2.4.4)

I could understand this if I was running 2.4.2p2, but as the bottom line says: (brought to you by Amanda 2.4.4) !!

What is wrong here ?



-----------------------------------
My amanda.conf:

runtapes 1
tpchanger "chg-multi"
changerfile "/etc/amanda/normal/changer.conf"

tapetype HARD-DISK
labelstr "normal-[0-9][0-9][0-9]"      

infofile "/etc/amanda/normal/curinfo"
logdir   "/etc/amanda/normal"
indexdir "/etc/amanda/normal/index"

define tapetype HARD-DISK {
        comment "hard disk instead of tape"
        length 285 mbytes # simulates end of tape on harddisk
}

define dumptype nocomp-user-gnutar {
            global
            program "GNUTAR"
            comment "user partitions dumped with tar and no compression"
            priority medium
        }
