This system was a new deployment on a the Solaris 10/sparc
server that I've written so many emails about.
The client we hit the issue with, perhaps a month ago, is
Solaris 10/x86.
Amanda version on both is the same, 2.6.1p1.
The client system has ZFS mount points for each user directory
as well as zfs mount points for each samba share (allowing
for individualized quotas, either through samba or direct use).
We hit, I think 70-some DLEs and hit the packet limit. At that
time we (you and I, I think) had a discussion about the --one-filesystem
switch, thought of trying to backup /export/home as a single DLE
rather than one per user.
Ultimately we decided to glob the users alphabetically (which
resulted in a patch from Jean-Louis concerning the zfs snapshot
naming convention, provided yesterday as yet untested).
So we are capped at 26 DLEs for users, however we continue to
migrate samba shares to the client server.
We are not currently having a packet size issue, but suspect
it will re-occur sooner rather than later.
thanks,
Brian
