Just a comment - I've been trying to get amanda 2.5.1 running to work around this issue and have already run into 2 critical bugs. Amanda 2.5.1 is nowhere near ready for prime time. However, maybe the changes to support tar 1.15.2 can be backported to amanda 2.5.0p2. I think all they involved was making amanda treat the tar snapshot files as opaque files and not making assumptions about their content. Haven't looked at the code yet though... Created attachment 137231 [details]
patch to copy tar snapshot files properly
Here is a backported to 2.5.0p2 patch of the change made on July 14 2006 in
amanda CVS to copy the snapshot files. Untested.
problem fixed with tar-1.15.1-15.FC5 |
