Hi Robert - I'm running it successfully on C7 using xinetd. Do you have documentation for running it directly from systemd? Working xinetd configuration: cat /etc/xinetd.d/amanda # default: off # description: The client for the Amanda backup system.\ # This must be on for systems being backed up\ # by Amanda. service amanda { disable = no socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = amandabackup group = disk server = /usr/sbin/amandad # Configure server_args for the authentication type you will be using, # and the services you wish to allow the amanda server and/or recovery # clients to use. # # Change the -auth= entry to reflect the authentication type you use. # Add amindexd to allow recovery clients to access the index database. # Add amidxtaped to allow recovery clients to access the tape device. server_args = -auth=bsd amdump flags = IPv4 } Cheers, Dave On 3/17/20 7:03 AM, Robert Heller wrote: > I am trying to get amanda backup going on a CentOS 7 system and things are not > working: > > sharky4.deepsoft.com% sudo systemctl start amanda-udp > [sudo] password for heller: > Job for amanda-udp.service failed because a configured resource limit was exceeded.
