Greetings;
I have not restarted the nightly amanda run yet, still fine tuning this new
install.
amrecover finally decided to work for about 95% of the time, but I find its an
exellent hard link finder, cuz tar can't deal with those and does an error
exit:
./sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/hosts
tar: ./sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/hosts: Cannot hard link to
`./hosts': No such file or directory
./sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0
./sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/network
./sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/resolv.conf
tar: ./sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/resolv.conf: Cannot hard link to
`./resolv.conf': No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Extractor child exited with status 2
Extracting files using tape drive chg-disk on host coyote.

this doesn't surprise me as I was extracting to /tmp, not /etc. But this next
thing bothers me. Can it not get that -o info the /$config/amanda.conf?

200 Good bye.
I would assume I would set the '-o amgtar' option on the cli, in which case
the first extraction above would probably have failed, while the last 2 tapes
would have been read ok instead of the error.
Comments Dustin? Have I uncovered a potential gotcha? These tapes straddle
the time frame where I converted to using amgtar.
