I'm sorry, I should have looked more closely -- the only hunk that failed here was ChangeLog, which isn't a problem. The code patches probably worked fine. That said, I've attached a patch I prepared

Since this mirror directory can be rebuilt from the master site I have decided to not backup the mirrors with Amanda. My question is how do I exclude the mirror directory? zada /export/zada.export.co

Is there a way to tell amanda not to do more than one level zero dump on the same day? I have a slow machine with 3 filesystems on it: /gen6 /gen14 /9gb If it does all three on one day it takes forev

There is no automatic way to do that. You can force one of the dle to do a full toning, in 2 days, you force another dle to do a full on that day, and 2 days later you force the last dle to do a full

Quick report: LTO2 drive, gentoo linux 2.6.27, amanda 2.6.1p1 OR 2.5.2p1 ... This installation has run smooth for months without a change, now we get hangs with amcheck .... amdumps also don't work.

Jean-Louis, but if the snapshots have the same name, /export/home-amanda current, then the second, 3rd... will fail. I have to wonder what happens to uncompleted dumps when the first dump completes a

Brian, It should create a different snapshot for each DLE, if not, then it is a missing feature of amzfs-snapshot. Can you test it and confirm it it works or not? Jean-Louis This will create two snap

Hi, Is there a way to modify the size of the TCP buffers used by AMANDA? I am trying to improve performance over a relatively high latency link and this seems to be the only way. Thanks, Alan Use Win

Greetings; I made a movie out of a machining operation which put nearly 18GB in .avi files in my /usr/movies DLE. But, I thought I would clean out the holding disk by doing a flush by hand, and found

Jean, Sorry for the delay, wanted to make sure the house was in order after my return. Will schedule a test on a single glob (not all 26 of them) for tonight and see if we can't tell what happens. --
