Hi,

Since we've migrated the filesystem from xfs to ext3 and increased the partition size, AMANDA keeps getting the same error for only one entry in the disklist. The others are doing fine.

baal       /var/spool/mail lev 2 FAILED [sec 753.519 kb 1283634 kps 1703.5 
orig-kb 1873010]


And the detailed log looks like:

/-- baal       /var/spool/mail lev 2 FAILED [sec 753.519 kb 1283634 kps 1703.5 
orig-kb 1873010]
sendbackup: start [baal:/var/spool/mail level 2]
sendbackup: info BACKUP=/bin/tar
sendbackup: info RECOVER_CMD=/bin/tar -f... -
sendbackup: info end
? gtar: 
./_shared/restricted/.Customer_Care/new/1097818227.M436708P5309V0000000000003A08I01DBE0CC_0.baal,S=20208:

? gtar: 
./_shared/restricted/.mobile/new/1097813595.M725891P21457V0000000000003A08I01F3D021_0.baal,S=13788:
 Warning: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
??error [/bin/tar got signal 13]? dumper: strange [missing size line from 
sendbackup]
\--------

Why do I get that '/bin/tar got signal 13'?

I've increased the etimeout to 5600 but I don't think that this might be the problem since the size estimation is done.

The volume I try to backup is:

/dev/vol0/mailspool1  212G   37G  176G  18% /var/spool/mail

The machine is a dual P3 750 witch 4 GB of RAM and the AMANDA server a P4 2.8 with 1 GB of RAM.

I know, I will have to split this volume into smaller volumes after it wont fit the tape anymore but what could be the problem right now?

Thanks and regards,
Iulian Topliceanu
