I am migrating my Amanda server from RH9 to Fedora Core 5. Using the
Amanda 2.4.5p1 RPMs available from the FC5 repository. Only thing I
cannot get working under FC5 is chg-scsi. Here are my amcheck results...
bash-3.1$ amcheck -t CIS

amcheck-server: could not get changer info: <error> could not read
result from "/usr/lib/amanda/chg-scsi" (got signal 6)
(brought to you by Amanda 2.4.5p1)
bash-3.1$
mtx can communicate with the changer just fine, so I may look to go
over to chg-mtx but I would prefer to have it working as it was before
with chg-scsi.
Attached is my chg-scsi.conf. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Fran
