Hi!

I'm using amanda for backups, and this friday I got a strange
error:

-----------------------------------------------------

FAILED AND STRANGE DUMP DETAILS:

--------------------------------------------------

I was puzzled by the error, and tried umounting the disk and
fsck'ing. fsck finished without errors, but remounting the disk
rendered a device busy error. It turned out that amanda was
hanging around still trying to dump the filesystem. I'm stuck,
it seems, and cannot even kill -9 the dump processes, and
cannot mount the fs until the processes are dead.

Here's the output of ps axvfU amanda:

  PID STAT      TIME  SL  RE PAGEIN   VSZ  RSS   LIM TSIZ %CPU

System is FreeBSD-4.0-STABLE (fresh). Amanda-2.4.1p1.

Is there anything I can do, but rebooting, which I'd rather not
do?

Cheers,
Palle
