Re: Restore error - centos 3/amanda-2.4.5 server - centos4/amanda-2.4.5 client

What OS and dump version was the data backed up from? What OS and dump version
are you trying to restore to?
In general, the dump type (xfsdump, vdump, etc.) and sometimes even the
version must be the same for backup and restore. This is an unfortunate
consequence of Amanda's use of native tools.
server that ran the backup
Linux 2.4.21-27.0.2.ELsmp
dump 0.4b37
client that got backed up
Linux 2.6.9-22.ELsmp
dump 0.4b39
and i can confirm that even on the server that did the backup i get the
same garbage when trying to restore - Is the dump version difference the
issue do you think?
