Hi Dustin,

I've run amdump several times and but there is nothing on the console.
The log files are not created either.

amanda@backupserver:/etc/amanda$ /usr/sbin/amcheck fullback
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------

read label `FULLBACK-01', date `20080919'
cannot overwrite active tape FULLBACK-01
      (expecting a new tape)
NOTE: conf info dir /var/lib/amanda/fullback/curinfo does not exist
NOTE: it will be created on the next run.
NOTE: index dir /var/lib/amanda/fullback/index/localhost does not exist
NOTE: it will be created on the next run.
Server check took 0.525 seconds

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
WARNING: Usage of fully qualified hostname recommended for Client localhost.
WARNING: Usage of fully qualified hostname recommended for Client localhost.
WARNING: Usage of fully qualified hostname recommended for Client localhost.
Client check: 1 host checked in 0.014 seconds, 0 problems found

(brought to you by Amanda 2.5.2)
amanda@backupserver:/etc/amanda$

Any thing I can do to get more debug info.

Thanks
Prashant

I am using amanda 2.5.2 and according to amcheck all is ok. Except that i do
not have logs and cannot see if backup is occuring or not.
Is there any thing else to enable to get logs and reports or any data on the
console.

>From the amcheck output, it doesn't look like you've ever run an
amdump.  When you run amdump, what happens?  Do you get a report by
email?
