Greetings;
I made a movie out of a machining operation which put nearly 18GB in .avi
files in my /usr/movies DLE.
So this mornings report for the 2nd time, notes its too big, and only wrote
a PARTIAL, then ran out of space, and I had added another 20GB to the size
of the vtape yesterday. I'll add another 10GB today.
But, I thought I would clean out the holding disk by doing a flush by hand,
and found a piece of my script that has worked numerous times before, is now
broken.
The command line issued from the /GenesAmandaHelper-0.6 directorry, as the
use amanda is: ./flush.sh Daily
The 6 line snippet of backup.sh, which flush.sh is a softlink to is:
================
# or are we running as flush.sh
if [ $0 == "./flush.sh" ]|| [ $0 == "${MYDIR}/flush.sh" ]||[ $0 == "flush.sh"
]; then
# we don't want amflush to disconnect or ask questions
if [`/bin/ls /dumps`]; then <<<<<----line 173
echo "Backup script running amflush -bf $CONFIGNAME " >> $LOG
=================
The if statement probably needs help but all its looking for is a non-null
response, or at least that's the theory when I wrote it and its worked
since years now.
But, now I get this return on the command line:
=================
./flush.sh: line 173: [20091019011512]: command not found
=================
and the echo line above never makes it to the log, here it is:
=================
./flush.sh started on 19/10/09 07:10:37 with arg Daily
CONFIGNAME = Daily
First put the tapelist in order with a run of amcheck
running /usr/local/sbin/amcheck Daily
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
Holding disk /dumps: 308895744 kB disk space available, using 308383744 kB
stage 1: search for oldest reusable volume
oldest reusable volume is 'Dailys-3'
changer is not fast-searchable; skipping to stage 2
stage 2: scan for any reusable volume
trying slot 3
Will write to volume 'Dailys-3' in slot 3.
NOTE: skipping tape-writable test
Server check took 1.014 seconds
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
Client check: 2 hosts checked in 2.460 seconds. 0 problems found.
(brought to you by Amanda 2.6.2alpha)
Back in ./flush.sh - and the lists should be sane
line 72 ./flush.sh tapenum from /usr/local/etc/amanda/Daily/chg-disk-slot is
now=3
TAPECYCLE=30
RUNTAPES=1
This script is being run as ./flush.sh
No dumps left in holding disk area, ./flush.sh has been skipped <<---is the
else clause of that 'if' in line 173
flush-indices-configs is done and completed successfully. <<--'echo' line is
trash, removed now
amcheckdump run is disabled by gene.conf config.

Can somebody teach me a better 'if' in line 173?
Thanks.
PS: I would still like to be able to turn the amcheckdump option back on,
but until it loses the required cli confirmation, that's DIW.
