Subject: [gentoo-user] how to amrecover in amanda-2.6.0

Hi, all,
I recently upgraded from amanda-2.4.5 to amanda-2.6.0_p2-r4. I think
I've been able to make backups
successfully: the backup reports amanda sends afterwards look
reasonable. However, I've not been able
to do restores. It appears that the contents of
/etc/amanda/amandahosts and /etc/xinetd.d/amanda have
changed between these two versions, and I suspect that my attempts at
updating the contents are at
fault.
My 2.4.5 amandahosts file looked like this:
my_host.my_domain amanda
my_host.my_domain root
and the 2.6.0_p2-r4 amandahosts looks like:
my_host.my_domain amanda amdump
my_host.my_domain root amindexd amidxtaped
My 2.4.5 amanda file looked like this:
service amanda
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = amanda
group = amanda
groups = yes
server = /usr/libexec/amanda/amandad
only_from = 192.168.1.0
disable = no
}
service amandaidx
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = amanda
group = amanda
groups = yes
server = /usr/libexec/amanda/amindexd
only_from = 192.168.1.0
disable = no
}
service amidxtape
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = amanda
group = amanda
groups = yes
server = /usr/libexec/amanda/amidxtaped
only_from = 192.168.1.0
disable = no
}
and my 2.6.0_p2-r4 amanda file looks like:
service amanda
{
disable = no
flags = IPv4
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = amanda
group = amanda
groups = yes
server = /usr/libexec/amanda/amandad
server_args = -auth=bsdtcp amdump amindexd amidxtaped
}
The above was taken from
/usr/share/doc/amanda-2.6.0_p2-r4/example/xinetd.amandaserver.bz2.
A run of amcheck shows no errors.
Running su -c "/usr/sbin/amadmin my_host find" amanda produces the
expected output.
Running amrecover -C my_host -t my_host -s my_host -d
file:/backup/my_host/vtapes
produces a pause of about 30 seconds then the following output:
AMRECOVER Version 2.6.0p2. Contacting server on my_host ...
[request failed: timeout waiting for ACK]
/var/log/messages contains nothing enlightening. Neither does
/var/amanda/my_host/log.*
Thanks for any ideas on how to debug this!
John Blinka
