Amanda not backing up Veritas file systems correctly

Hello,

I have been using amanda for nearly two years now.  Most things seem pretty
easy to figure out...  At least if you like source code and cscope...  :)

I currently am running amanda-2.4.4p2 on both server and client, the server
being a redhat 7.x system.

The client is a recently added solaris 9 server running clearcase.  Its /,
/bybee1, and /var filesystems are using ufs.  The filesystems /bybee[2..10]
are using vxfs.  Amanda can back them up ok, but if I mount their snapshots
separately then try to backup the snapshots, they are mistaken for ufs
filesystems and ufsdump therefore dies.  

Ok, more information:

The filesystems I am testing against are:
Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c1t0d13s2   51423232   29078 48182027     1%    /bybee9
/dev/dsk/c1t0d18s2   51423232   29078 48182020     1%    /bybee9SnapVol

/bybee9 is simply a vxfs filesystem mounted at /bybee9
/bybee9SnapVol is a snapshot of /bybee9 mounted at /bybee9SnapVol

I am running planner directly on the server:
        planner Daily2 bybee /bybee9SnapVol
        planner Daily2 bybee /dev/dsk/c1t0d18s2 

If I run "planner Daily2 bybee /bybee9", I get a successful run of vxdump
(looking in /tmp/amanda/sendsize)

However, if I run the planner on either /bybee9SnapVol, or its device file,
sendsize tries to run ufsdump instead.  If I use the solaris program
"fstyp", it returns that the device files are vxfs filesystems.  Where is
amanda going wrong (or me for that matter)?
