AMANDA is starting to drive me nucking futs.. seems as if every week something new breaks and I can't find the answer to why.
Here's whats going on... AMANDA sends me an email with the following information:

These dumps were to tape DailySet118.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: a new tape.

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
  bda2.berke //illustrator/BDA_Manual lev 1 STRANGE
  venus.berk /home lev 1 FAILED [data timeout]
*SNIP*
/-- venus.berk /home lev 1 FAILED [data timeout]
sendbackup: start [venus.berkeley-da.com:/home level 1]
sendbackup: info BACKUP=/bin/tar
sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/usr/bin/gzip -dc |/bin/tar -f... -
sendbackup: info COMPRESS_SUFFIX=.gz
sendbackup: info end

Previously something else was broken and I set the etimeout a bit higher. I have now raised the etimeout to 10000 and it didn't fix anything. This backup was working last week and now all of a sudden it doesn't. It is trying to backup a 266GB file system and the disk that AMANDA is dumping to has 420GB available.  Any idea on what would be causing this?
