I noticed that if you specify a DLE like: "desktop.domain.com   /   
normal", this only backus up the device where the root of the file 
system resides.  To backup the other devices I used 
"desktop.domain.com   md1   normal" to backup another file system.

Question, how do I enter a DLE for a device which was configured 
"/dev/md/0" and not /dev/md0"?
    
Is that really your disklist entry?  I.e. all you have is

   <a_hostname>  md1  <a_dumptype>

Doesn't work for me.  I might have expected

   <a_hostname>  md1  /dev/md1  <a_dumptype>

Without mentioning a full path somewhere, either to the device
or to the top of the directory where I'm backing up, I get complaints.

In any even, amcheck -c is your friend.  Try things in your disklist
for yourself.  If amcheck accepts them, it will probably work.
Assuming md1 actually does work for you with no /dev, I'd try md/0.

  
Hello Jon:

Yes, that is the format I am using for my disklist DLEs (get no complaints from amcheck...):

bksrv     /etc/amanda                     bkserver
bksrv     /                               bkserver
srv1     md0                             normal
srv1     md1                             normal
srv1     sda1                            normal
srv1     sdb1                            normal
srv2    hda3                            normal
srv2    hda1                            normal
srv2    /rsync                            normal

I will try specifying the device name (md/0) as you suggest.

Thanks,
RV
