You have a few choices: 1. Add a new tape to the rotation. It will be used before any other.
2. You can prevent a tape from being used for backups with a command like this: amanda@tape$ amadmin YourConfig no-reuse YourGoodTape (See `man amadmin` for more info.) 3. Anything else I might have forgotten. (Like AMANDA remembering that that's the last level 0 and declining to overwrite the tape.) You should probably also be concerned about those crashes, but that's a separate topic. Good Luck.
