Re: No more holding disk space

I have a server with 60 GB of disk space left after installing
everything. I thought I gave amanda the whole 60 gigs. Should it need
more that that?

[no more holding disk space]
At the risk of sounding pedantic,
increase the amount of holding disk space.
It doesn't have to be a single space, I'm currently using two
and my previous installation had four holding disks (HDs).
Just empty directories on different file systems that I let
amanda use all the available space except one or two GB.
And I set the chunk size to one or two GB so it is easy to
split a DLE among the various HDs.
You might also see if some junk is still in the HD.
You might also split up the DLE so it doesn't require so much HD.
It also sounds as if the estimate is incorrect as I don't think
amanda will write to the HD if it expects the size to be bigger
than the available space. Instead it would send that DLE direct
to tape.
