amcleanup - run the Amanda cleanup process after a failure


SYNOPSIS

       amcleanup config


DESCRIPTION

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

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


EXAMPLES

       This example runs the Amanda cleanup process by hand after
       a failure.

              % amcleanup DailySet1

       Putting the following line in a system boot  script  (e.g.
       /etc/rc.local)  runs the Amanda cleanup process as part of
       the reboot, eliminating the need to run it by hand.

              /usr/sbin/amcleanup DailySet1

       If nothing needs to be done, amcleanup exits normally with
       the message:

              amcleanup: no unprocessed logfile to clean up.
