Re: amcheck/amdump fails (sometimes) to amanda client

Problem found and fixed!
The problem was that when I ran amcheck (and amdump) manually it worked to a
client machine, but when run from crontab it failed.
The problem was caused when we upgraded our main server, which is the tape
server, to a new machine. As part of this upgrade, we gave the old machine
a new IP address but left it on the network. What was happening is that the
old amanda machine was running amcheck and amdump at about the same time as
the new server. However, there was some sort of problem when the old server
ran amcheck that caused the client's inetd service to say:
May 27 16:19:47 marge inetd[94728]: amanda/udp server failing (looping),
service terminated
Then, of course, the new server could no longer connect.
The solution was to remove the crontab entries on the old machine.
