Hi Paddy,

Thanks for you email.

I am using GNUTAR.

Index is set to yes in amanda.conf and all other clients are being indexed.

Please advise.

Many thanks
Prashant

Check the dumptype configuration for the client.  Are you using
program GNUTAR? Have you set "index no" in
the dumptype?

Hi All,

I have the following in the amanda-client.conf

  conf "fullback"         # your config name
  index_server "backupserver"     # your amindexd server
  tape_server  "backupserver"     # your amidxtaped server
  tapedev      "/dev/nst0"        # your tape device
  auth "bsd"
  index yes


And from having the following in ~/.amandahosts

  amanda@fileserver1:/var/lib/amanda$ more .amandahosts
  localhost backup amdump
  backupserver amanda amdump
  backupserver root amdump
  backupserver root amindexd amidxtaped
  backupserver amanda amindexd amidxtaped


backupserver points to the correct ip address.

But still this client is not indexed. All other do.

Is the there any thing else I need to enable.
Amanda version is 2.5.2

Help please,

Kind Regards,
Prashant
