Hi,
I'm using Debian Woody with amanda 2.4.2
When I run amcheck everything is OK.
When I run amdump, it is almost immediately done.
in runtar.*.log I find the following:
running: /bin/tar: /bin/tar --create --file /dev/null --directory /
--one-file-system --listed-incremental
/var/lib/amanda/gnutar-lists/ulysses.lan.publivandyck.besda2_0.new
--sparse --ignore-failed-read --totals .
It seems to me that tar is dumping to /dev/null.
Someone an idea why tar dumps to /dev/null?
disklist contains only one line
ulysses.lan.publivandyck.be sda2 user-tar
The beginning of /etc/amanda/daily/amanda.conf contains:
#
# amanda.conf - sample Amanda configuration file.
#
# If your configuration is called, say, "DailySet1", then this file
# normally goes in /etc/amanda/DailySet1/amanda.conf.

# Define the type of tape you use here, and use it in "tapetype" above.
# Some typical types of tapes are included here. The tapetype tells amanda
# how many MB will fit on the tape, how big the filemarks are, and how
# fast the tape device is.
#
# For completeness Amanda should calculate the inter-record gaps too, but it
# doesn't. For EXABYTE and DAT tapes this is ok. Anyone using 9 tracks for
# amanda and need IRG calculations? Drop me a note if so.
