Hello,
You should try increasing the "etimeout" parameter in amanda.conf and run the backup again. This seems to be a timeout issue.
Thanks

Hi list,

ever seen something like this in amstatus output ?

 matrix:/var/lib/backuppc 0 planner: [hmm, disk was stranded on waitq]

This is a new debian box, which (guess it :) runs BackupPC, and was taken into amanda's disklist today. This DLE should have around ~60GB.

On this client, there is a "tar [foobar] --file /dev/null [barfoo]" still running now, and i guess amanda runs into etimeout. However, never seen this message since running amanda (~3 years now). Not an urgent issue, since i'm just moving over amanda from an old amanda-server to a new one with another robot attached.
