The problem is that udev is creating the dev as owner root.root with 600 permissions.
I added in /etc/udev/permissions.d/50-udev.permissions the line:
mapper/*:root:disk:0660
There are 2 files in /dev/mapper:
control vg00-lvroot (my lv for the / partition)
The control file (which I don't really care about the permissions) changed to owner "root" group "disk" with 0660. So I know my entry in the permissions file is ok.
But the lv "vg00-lvroot" still has owner "root" group "root" and permissions of "0600".
So everytime I reboot I need to change the group to disk and permissions to 0660 to allow amanda to back up the disk.
Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks, MIke
