Hi, I did replace gzip with this wrapper script #!/bin/bash #
#save file TMPFILE=/tmp/gzip.save.$$ tee $TMPFILE | gzip.real -dc and saved the file amrevocer sends to gzip. 00015.clio3._export_software_WindowsMobile.0 is the file from the virtual tape lib gzip.save.10612 is the file amrecover sends to gzip root@clio4:/tmp# ls -l 00015.clio3._export_software_WindowsMobile.0 gzip.save.10612 -rw------- 1 root root 1671168 Sep 11 12:22 00015.clio3._export_software_WindowsMobile.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1658880 Sep 12 11:27 gzip.save.10612 root@clio4:/tmp# file 00015.clio3._export_software_WindowsMobile.0 gzip.save.10612 00015.clio3._export_software_WindowsMobile.0: AMANDA dump file, DATE 20120911 clio3 /export/software/WindowsMobile lev 0 comp .gz p gzip.save.10612: POSIX tar archive (GNU) root@clio4:/tmp# It is already uncompressed. So it seems like amanda server sends incorrect information to amrecover.
