I've got a Linux workstation which uses xfs as one of its volumes
(/dev/md2), but which I can't back up using Amanda because Amanda appears
to call /sbin/dump on it, which under Linux blows up (/sbin/dump is ext2/3
only).
How do I make Amanda call the "right" dump program (xfsdump rather than
/sbin/dump)?
Install xfsprogs.
(at least on Debian that where you'll find xfsdump/xfsrestore).
I think you will have to recompile Amanda though but I might be mistaken.
I have /usr/sbin/xfsdump already but Amanda doesn't seem to know how to
call it, even though sendsize is aware that it's an XFS filesystem:
