Hi there,
yes and no.......
the problem is not in amanda it is in linux-dump.
if you read the manpage of dump the first lines tell you:

NAME
     dump - ext2 filesystem backup

this should be clear enough......

As far as I know amanda cannot handle reiserfs, when using dump. You have to configure tar.

I have succesfuly installed amanda.
However, on the servers I have installed drbd.
And it seems that amanda does not hork with drbd.
Or maybe amanda does not work with reiserfs partitions?
Does somewoane succesfuly tried this combination?
Even that all the checks are succesfully:
amcheck -c <conf>
amcheck -s <conf>
amcheck -l <conf>,
when I try a amdump <conf>, the amandas log says:
sendsize[11909]: time 0.014: /dev/nb0: Bad magic number in super-block
while opening filesystem
sendsize[11909]: time 0.015:   DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.
sendsize[11909]: time 0.015: .....
sendsize[11909]: estimate time for /mail level 0: 0.011
sendsize[11909]: no size line match in /sbin/dump output for "/mail"

I dont know where to look next.
Amanda works fine, drbd works fine, but they dont work together.
