I've put eject=0 in the config and it worked perfectly, 'amtape show' now
goes to all tapes.

Now i'll have to check the rest of my configuration, and learn a bit more
about tapecycle, runtapes, dumpcycle, runspercycle, etc. For now i will use
one localdisk for test and later i'll try clients on other linux hosts,
Alpha/Tru64 and Windows.
My first test failed in amanda check with:

Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
WARNING: localhost: selfcheck request failed: timeout waiting for ACK
Client check: 1 host checked in 30.013 seconds, 1 problem found

I have a lot to learn!

One thing that i don't understand is if i want to backup a filesystem with
30GB (or more) of data will amanda span the data thru the tapes needed? (i
meen if amanda start the backup to Tape-000 when the tape ends will it
automaticly continue this backup on Tape-001)


Thanks. Cheers,

Manuel

PS: When i have everything working i'll send a summary with my experience to
the list.
