General :: Using AMANDA To Restore Backups Of Red Hat Enterprise AS Release 4?
May 12, 2010I've run into a problem when trying to restore a file using AMANDA. My setup is as follows: I have a server that runs on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 and I have a client that runs on Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4. I successfully backed up files on the client using AMANDA.
Now I am trying to restore a file from the backup and restore it to the client running Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4. In order to do this, I have to go through the server which runs Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4.
Here is the problem I encounter. When I try the restore, it freezes at the extraction process. I've left it running for the night and still it is stuck at the same place. The restore never completes.
So I'm wondering if anyone knows what seems to be the issue? Could it be that the AMANDA driver I installed does not allow restore with different versions of Red Hat? Or is there an update in Red Hat 4 that would fix this issue?

Fedora :: Failing HD And Restore Not Restoring
Dec 20, 2010The HD containing my main F14 install is suddenly failing with many unreadable blocks. So I booted a different F14 installation I have on another disk.
Then I run dump, for example, as following:
Code:
dump -0 -a -q -v -A sdb1_home.arc -f sdb1_home.dmp -L F14_sdb1_home /dev/sdb1
as, for what I can recall, I've often done to create full backups.
The problem is that running restore with this command:
Code:
restore -i -A sdb1_home.arc -f sdb1_home.dmp
(as, for whatI can...) and using the add and extract commands, only the directory are created. But files are listed using ls. If I add just a file, only dirname is extracted.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Restoring Partition Table - 'Testdisk' Not Working?
Jan 27, 2010I was having trouble creating a USB Startup Disk in Ubuntu and used the command:
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=1M count=1
This was a mistake as my USB flash drive was on /dev/sdc. If I am understanding this correctly, the command above deleted the MBR and the partition table. This disk had a single "/storage" partition on it. I googled a solution and found that the "testdisk" program seems to be the most popular solution for things like this. I ran it, selected an "Intel/PC partition" type, set the partition to a non-bootable primary Linux partition, wrote it, and rebooted.
Whenever I run:
sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /storage
I get:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so
Dmesg shows the following:

General :: Openbox - Autostart.sh File Is Not Restoring Things
Jun 13, 2010I've decided to give openbox a try with Debian testing. I set up my right-click menu exactly how I want it, and everything else is set up perfectly. I installed trayer and tint2, along with nitrogen. I added the following lines to my ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh file, but things aren't loading/restoring as they should. Tint2 and trayer don't load at all, and nitrogen isn't restoring my wallpaper. All I get is a black screen with my cursor, but the ability to right-click and open the menu, so it's not like X is dead. I did set the default wallpaper by issuing the command nitrogen /home/john/Pictures/Wallpapers, where "Wallpapers" contains all of my background images.
Here is my autostart.sh file: Code: # Autostart file for openbox nitrogen --restore & sleep 2s && tint -c /home/john/.config/tint/.tintrc) & (sleep 2s && trayer --expand true --transparent true --alpha 255 --edge bottom --align right --expand true --SetDockType true --widthtype request --margin 130) & I do have proper content in the .tintrc file located in /home/john/.config/tint/tintrc. Am I doing something wrong here?

Server :: Red Hat 5.5 - Amanda (or Alternative) Backup
Jun 6, 2010I'm fairly competent with Linux at this stage and as we have just installed a new Red Hat 5.5 Server to host our DB at work it has basically fallen to me to sort everything out. The only thing I'm not 100% on is a backup strategy at the moment. Basically, the server / DB is not that big and as such we will be doing a full backup every night of the whole file system.
As it is there are several LVM partitions across several disks (these are all virtual both on the SAN and as a virtual machine). My question is what would be the best way to create a full backup overnight of the whole server including all the partitions (or a backup of each partition I'm guessing is more feasible). This doesn't seem to be too difficult to do, but my main problem is restoring the backup.
Is it a simple matter of basically .tar'ing the whole / filesystem? and if so, to restore can I just use a live CD to restore the partition that is needed? How does LVM affect the restoration process? I have looked at Amanda as a backup solution, though we wont be backing up directly to tape (backup to a share location then copy to the tape drive).

Sep 3, 2010I'm configuring Amanda Enterprise on an OpenSuSE 11.3 system, and everything but the scheduled backups are running. I decided to try and fix it tonight, but I'm pretty fed up by now.
So here's the background:
The application creates an account on the box named "amandabackup" and adds it to the 'video' and 'disk' groups.
It generates cron jobs in /etc/zmanda/zmc_aee/crontab, which is configured as the location of the crontab file for the amandabackup user.
The crontab is owned by amandabackup:disk with a mask of 644.
So I played around with it a little bit; I ran the backup task manually as amandabackup, which worked fine.
I then tried adding the following to the crontab:
And touched amandacron.log, then made sure it was owned by amandabackup with a mask of 644 (i also tried /etc/amanda/amandacron.log, which is a directory the account stores backup session configs in, so I know it can write to it properly). The file is never updated. I tried adding amandabackup to different groups (it's currently been added to the "Users" group), with no success. I tried a symlink to the crontab file in /etc/cron.d to see if that would make a difference, but it didn't.
At this point, I went online and tried some more stuff I found:
I checked /var/log/mail/amandabackup - everything *but* cron jobs were reporting to it.
I verified cron was running with both "ps -ef | grep cron" and "rccron status"
I ensured /var/spool/cron/tabs/amandabackup existed, showed the proper entries, and was set to 644. (this one's the important bit)I checked /var/log/messages, and every minute on the dot I see: <timestamp> /usr/sbin/cron[PID]: Permission Denied
I ensured there was no /etc/cron.allow, and that /etc/cron.deny did not contain amandabackup.
I tried making an /etc/cron.allow, adding amandabackup, and restarting the cron daemon, but this did nothing.
I don't think I've forgotten anything, but my attempts have been getting progressively more feverish, so I'm not positive. Is there some annoying YAST cron panel I'm not seeing? Is there some way of getting more verbose logging out of the cron daemon than just "permission denied"? Is there some draconian rule about crontabs only working based on some otherwise-arbitrary account setting?
