The logfile shows: Assuming fd 7 is the pipe to tar, it means that tar exited before amfetchdump send all the data, do you get any error from tar? You can try to do it in 2 step:
$ ~amanda/sbin/amfetchdump -p -d tape:/dev/nst0 top localhost /data_/mica1 20170219 > datafile Do the data file contain the backup? ls -l, file datafile $ tar -xpGf datafile Check system/selinux logs for error.
