Hi Amanda-users list,

This is my first email, so please forgive any missing info.
We have Amanda amanda-2.5.2p1 running on Solaris 10 x86 (Sun Microsystems Sun Fire(TM) X2100).

I've tried two configurations both showing up the same issue.. We backup about 187gig (250gig before compression) of data each night (fulls only). However we keep getting the below repeated in the amdump;

find diskspace: not enough diskspace. Left with 105696 K
find diskspace: not enough diskspace. Left with 90080 K

##much more..

Even though we have now turned off the holding disk, we still get the error.

Question 1) With no holding disk configured, should this message still be showing in the amdump?

Question 2) we have 147gig free on the system, can we have less holding disk space than the total backup? (my reading suggests that as long as the two largests dumps fit it should be fine)

Question 3) should we just ignore this error?


Thanks for the help,


Regards,
