Hi, all, |
2 |
|
3 |
I recently upgraded from amanda-2.4.5 to amanda-2.6.0_p2-r4. I think |
4 |
I've been able to make backups |
5 |
successfully: the backup reports amanda sends afterwards look |
6 |
reasonable. However, I've not been able |
7 |
to do restores. It appears that the contents of |
8 |
/etc/amanda/amandahosts and /etc/xinetd.d/amanda have |
9 |
changed between these two versions, and I suspect that my attempts at |
10 |
updating the contents are at |
11 |
fault. |
12 |
|
13 |
My 2.4.5 amandahosts file looked like this: |
14 |
|
15 |
my_host.my_domain amanda |
16 |
my_host.my_domain root |
17 |
|
18 |
and the 2.6.0_p2-r4 amandahosts looks like: |
19 |
|
20 |
my_host.my_domain amanda amdump |
21 |
my_host.my_domain root amindexd amidxtaped |
22 |
|
23 |
|
24 |
My 2.4.5 amanda file looked like this: |
25 |
|
26 |
service amanda |
27 |
{ |
28 |
socket_type = dgram |
29 |
protocol = udp |
30 |
wait = yes |
31 |
user = amanda |
32 |
group = amanda |
33 |
groups = yes |
34 |
server = /usr/libexec/amanda/amandad |
35 |
only_from = 192.168.1.0 |
36 |
disable = no |
37 |
} |
38 |
|
39 |
service amandaidx |
40 |
{ |
41 |
socket_type = stream |
42 |
protocol = tcp |
43 |
wait = no |
44 |
user = amanda |
45 |
group = amanda |
46 |
groups = yes |
47 |
server = /usr/libexec/amanda/amindexd |
48 |
only_from = 192.168.1.0 |
49 |
disable = no |
50 |
} |
51 |
|
52 |
service amidxtape |
53 |
{ |
54 |
socket_type = stream |
55 |
protocol = tcp |
56 |
wait = no |
57 |
user = amanda |
58 |
group = amanda |
59 |
groups = yes |
60 |
server = /usr/libexec/amanda/amidxtaped |
61 |
only_from = 192.168.1.0 |
62 |
disable = no |
63 |
} |
64 |
|
65 |
|
66 |
and my 2.6.0_p2-r4 amanda file looks like: |
67 |
|
68 |
service amanda |
69 |
{ |
70 |
disable = no |
71 |
flags = IPv4 |
72 |
socket_type = stream |
73 |
protocol = tcp |
74 |
wait = no |
75 |
user = amanda |
76 |
group = amanda |
77 |
groups = yes |
78 |
server = /usr/libexec/amanda/amandad |
79 |
server_args = -auth=bsdtcp amdump amindexd amidxtaped |
80 |
} |
81 |
|
82 |
The above was taken from |
83 |
/usr/share/doc/amanda-2.6.0_p2-r4/example/xinetd.amandaserver.bz2. |
84 |
|
85 |
A run of amcheck shows no errors. |
86 |
|
87 |
Running su -c "/usr/sbin/amadmin my_host find" amanda produces the |
88 |
expected output. |
89 |
|
90 |
Running amrecover -C my_host -t my_host -s my_host -d |
91 |
file:/backup/my_host/vtapes |
92 |
produces a pause of about 30 seconds then the following output: |
93 |
AMRECOVER Version 2.6.0p2. Contacting server on my_host ... |
94 |
[request failed: timeout waiting for ACK] |
95 |
|
96 |
/var/log/messages contains nothing enlightening. Neither does |
97 |
/var/amanda/my_host/log.* |
98 |
|
99 |
Thanks for any ideas on how to debug this! |
