I am able to use the following commands for amanda properly:
amlabel
amtape
amcheck
but...i am unable to write to a tape(never used tape backup before, so i
dont know exactly how to read the log files properly)......i am wanting
to backup the server that amanda is running on
so do i need amanda-client rpm installed also...if so i have it installed...
this is the only thing i have in my disklist file
bs1.domain.name /etc comp-root-tar
i added the following to .amandahosts file:
bs1.domain.name amanda
i can telnet to ports 10082 and 10083 but NOT 10080
and when i run amcheck DailySet1 this is the output:
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
Holding disk /data: 66999148 KB disk space available, using 66998124 KB
amcheck-server: slot 3: date 20030924 label DailySet14 (first labelstr
match)
NOTE: skipping tape-writable test
Tape DailySet14 label ok
NOTE: info dir /usr/adm/amanda/normal/database: does not exist
NOTE: it will be created on the next run
NOTE: index dir /usr/adm/amanda/normal/index: does not exist
Server check took 28.989 seconds
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
Client check: 1 host checked in 0.039 seconds, 0 problems found
(brought to you by Amanda 2.4.3)
when i run the following:
su amanda -c "amadmin DailySet1 find bs1"
bash: /root/.bashrc: Permission denied
the following is returned: by the way "/data" is the main holding disk
Scanning /data...
lost+found: skipping cruft directory, perhaps you should delete it.
No dump to list
So is there anything i overlooked or havent completed yet to write to a
tape?
btw also
these services i have running for amanda
amanda
amandaidx
amidxtape
and i stopped iptables also
Thanks
