Hi people! I am trying to create a backup server using Amanda , so I have installed it on a machine (enseada), configurate the server and a client (itaunas) just for a test. The client have a /homelocal directory with 8 Gb and and the server have a dds-2 tapedriver with uses 4Gb tapes (I have 5 of then). So the server must use at least 2 tapes per dump. I use "amcheck" to test my backup configuration (quinzenal) and it is ok. So I decide to test my backup and executed "amdump", but after some minutes the following errors apears: These dumps were to tape quinzenal01. The next 5 tapes Amanda expects to used are: a new tape, quinzenal02, quinzenal03, quinzenal04, quinzenal05. FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: itaunas /homelocal lev 0 FAILED [dump larger than tape, 3959705 KB, but cannot incremental dump new disk] planner: FATAL cannot fit anything on tape, bailing out ... I dont understeand. I know that my directory is bigger than my tape but why dont Amanda ask for another tape? Help! :) Thanks Adilson
