Sorry but core doesn't tells me anything useful.
But as this core file is created inside the /tmp/amanda directory, and the
timestamp is during the amdump, I think that yes, it comes from an amanda crash.
Ok, so let's find what is troubling :
- on the client, what executable are runned and in what order ?
I guess amandad is a program that runs many things (answer to estimates,
dumping, checks... ?)
- if the estimates fail to be sent, the amandad program won't be called in a
amdump session to dump anything. The only calls made will be check, and
estimates, I guess ?
- In what log files could I find more information ?
- Can I make the core file speak ?
