Amanda is using root-dump on the disks, if that matters. When running amcheck, I got permission errors on the partitions. The problem was, that xinetd did not set the additional groups by default. I had to add the groups = yes statement in the amanda config file for xinetd, then it worked. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do a fresh install of amanda 2. Configure disklist to dump a partition with root-dump. 3. Run amcheck <configuration> Actual Results: ERROR: <host>: Could not access /dev/mapper/vg-lv: Permission denied Expected Results: No error message -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
