Pages linked from here describe common problems with Amanda, their causes, and their solutions. The same article may be linked under several different categories.
By Application
amandad
amcheck
- Access as localuser not allowed from remoteuser@remotehost
- Amcheck cannot login as the amanda user
- Configuration keyword expected
- Not an amanda tape
- Numerical argument out of domain
- Port NNNN is not secure
- Selfcheck request failed
- Why does amcheck fail while amdump succeeds?
amdump
- Amdump Only Creates Incremental Dumps in Holding Disk
- Amdump fails to create level 0 dumps
- Amdump is terribly slow
- Cannot overwrite active tape
- Data timeout
- Disk offline
- Dump returned 1
- Dump size is the same regardless of the backup level
- Dumps way too big, must skip incremental dumps
- Infofile update failed
- Memory allocation failed
- Mesg read: Connection reset by peer
- Planner: ERROR amanda user is not allowed to execute the service noop
- Results missing
- Sendbackup error: no backup size line
- Tape Input-Output error
- Unexpected field value in snapshot file
amflush
amrecover
- 500 Access not allowed
- Amrecover: wildcard characters in filenames
- Could not read config file
- EOF, check amidxtaped.debug
- No index records for host-disk
- Why does `amrecover` start over and over again, when I tell it to extract from tape?
- Why does amrecover erase files?
amrestore
