Hello honourable readers of the list,
After some succesfull testing, I wanted to make a run for real. As
recommended in the FAQ I removed:
-curinfo
-any log files from the log directory
-tapelist
-reseted the changer state file
so I run the amcheck on a particular configuration and I do get:
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
Holding disk /var/backups/holdingdisk: 1431256 KB disk space available, that's
plenty
WARNING: skipping tape test because amdump or amflush seem to be running
WARNING: if they are not, you must run amcleanup
NOTE: info dir /var/lib/amanda/test/curinfo/dell: does not exist
NOTE: index dir /var/lib/amanda/test/index/dell: does not exist
Server check took 0.023 seconds
---------------
so I run
amcleanup on the configuration
and amcheck does not believe me.
I checked that I did not forget to delete the recommended files
no process is running, no tape is in the drive
Then there probably is a file named "amflush". Rename it to "amflush.0"
or "amflush.1" (next free number).
Maybe you ran amflush or other testing as root? Then some
files/directores were created as root, and now owned by root, amanda
cannot write in them.
I remember I had that problem before but forgot to take notes and my
memory fails me right now.
Does anybody out there keep notes in a beter way or has a non failling
memory :=)
archives and google search did not help much on this topic
