Do amandad is running?

On linux, I would use strace for that.

Jean-Louis,

The amdump just finished and because amanda ran out of tapes
(runtapes=10) it completed badly leaving stuff in the holdding
disk. I'm flushing it at the moment but I noticed that when amanda
gave up it left a lot of gnutar lying around, with amandad as parent.
I had to manually kill them. Looks like signals are not doing ok.
I've attached one example of a DLE's sendbackup and runtar debug file.
It's not the first time I notice that when a DLE fails to make it
to tape successfully processes are left running...

Could you post amandad.<timestamp>.debug file from yorick?

On a server running irix-6.5 and amanda 2.5.1p2
planner debug shows:

security_close(handle=1001d4a8, driver=4075aa8 (BSDTCP))
security_stream_close(1005e538)

and the amanda report shows things like:

 yorick  DATA_sub101   lev 0  FAILED [hmm, disk was stranded on waitq]
 planner: ERROR Request to yorick failed: EOF on read from yorick

and the backup fails. The funny thing is that I have 2 other configurations
running 2.5.1p2 in parallel that doesn't exhibit this behaviour.
Any clues?
