NAME

6       amcleanup - run the Amanda cleanup process after a failure
7

SYNOPSIS

9       amcleanup [-k] [-p] [-v] config
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Amcleanup generates the Amanda Mail Report and updates the Amanda
13       databases after a system failure on a tape server host. This cleanup
14       process is normally done automatically as part of the amdump program,
15       but if amdump cannot complete for some reason (usually because of a
16       tape server host crash), amcleanup must be run some time later (usually
17       during system boot).

19       See the amanda(8) man page for more details about Amanda.

OPTIONS

22       -k
23           Kill all process listed in the log file are their child. if there
24           is no log file, then kill all amdump and amflush process and their
25           child.
26
27       -p
28           Do the cleanup only if all process listed in the log file are
29           already terminated.
30
31       -v
32           Generate verbose output.

EXAMPLES

35       This example runs the Amanda cleanup process by hand after a failure.
36       % amcleanup daily
37
38       Putting the following line in a system boot script (e.g.
39       /etc/rc.local) runs the Amanda cleanup process as part of the reboot,
40       eliminating the need to run it by hand.
41       /usr/local/sbin/amcleanup daily
42
43       If nothing needs to be done, amcleanup exits normally with the message:
44       amcleanup: no unprocessed logfile to clean up.
