Please post (e.g. copy/paste) the actual command line (shell prompt
and all) and all the output it produced.  It's not that I don't believe
you :-), but I'm missing something here and seeing all the details will
hopefully jog an idea loose.

What version of Amanda are you using (amadmin xx version | grep VERSION)?

No.  You're confusing a type of tape (DELL_DLT) with a tape label
(DailyBackupTapeNumber014).
