Amverifyrun not verifying the entire run -- anyone know why?
2008-04-12 10:09:25
Hey,
I've been using amanda for years now to backup linux boxes on
my home network. Data is written to vtapes on a 3ware RAID-1.
I recently upgraded the OS on one of the amanda clients, which
might be related to what I'm seeing here.
The problem: I just noticed that amverifyrun is not verifying the
entire run -- the recently upgraded host is never verified.
Not sure how long it's been doing this. I have to admit I've
merely been reading the first couple lines of the amverify report
email:
Tapes: daily-40
No errors found!
When I see "No errors found," I stop reading. :-)
The full content of the report is
Tapes: daily-40
No errors found!

That looks just fine, except there is no mention of godel.dmurray.int -- the
host I recently upgraded. I know amanda is dumping godel, because
it says so in the amdump email, snippet follows:
godel.dmurray.int /home/dmurray 2 52 39
75.9 0:11 3803.0 0:00 166224.5
godel.dmurray.int /opt/cvs 0 295 181
61.3 0:26 7012.2 0:05 38310.4
I've also verified that there are godel dumps on the amanda server. And
I just did a test amrecover of /opt/cvs. The files look okay, though
tar did print
a lot of acl warnings like this:
tar: ./CVSROOT/Emptydir: Warning: Cannot acl_from_text: Invalid argument
Tape server/Index server is running:
amanda-backup_client-2.5.1p3-1.fc6
amanda-backup_server-2.5.1p3-1.fc6
The obstinate client (godel.dmurray.int) is running:
amanda-2.5.2p1-8.fc8
amanda-client-2.5.2p1-8.fc8
