If you have any problem with amdump first make sure that the command amcheck still succeeds. The amcheck command also points you to a much more detailed and to the point problem area than e.g. the amdump error "all disks failed"

Here is list of issues that amdump may encounter:


Amdump: results missing

Amdump: disk offline

Amdump: dumps way too big, must skip incremental dumps

Amdump: infofile update failed

Amdump: cannot overwrite active tape

Amdump: /sbin/dump returned 1

Why does 'amdump' not dump to the holding disk?

Why does 'amdump' give me 'Tape I/O error'?

Why does 'amdump fail to create level 0 dump'

Amdump fails to backup large DLEs

Amdump is terribly slow
