.SH "NAME"
amcleanup - run the Amanda cleanup process after a failure
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP 10
\fBamcleanup\fR \fIconfig\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBAmcleanup\fR
generates the
\fB\fBAmanda\fR Mail Report\fR
and updates the
\fBAmanda\fR
databases after a system failure on a tape server host. This cleanup process is normally done automatically as part of the
\fBamdump\fR
program, but if
\fBamdump\fR
cannot complete for some reason (usually because of a tape server host crash),
\fBamcleanup\fR
must be run some time later (usually during system boot).
.PP
See the
\fBamanda\fR(8)
man page for more details about
\fBAmanda\fR.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
This example runs the
\fBAmanda\fR
cleanup process by hand after a failure.
.nf

% amcleanup daily
.fi
.PP
Putting the following line in a system boot script (e.g.
\fI/etc/rc.local\fR) runs the
\fBAmanda\fR
cleanup process as part of the reboot, eliminating the need to run it by hand.
.nf

/usr/local/sbin/amcleanup daily
.fi
.PP
If nothing needs to be done,
\fBamcleanup\fR
exits normally with the message:
.nf

amcleanup: no unprocessed logfile to clean up.
