Hi, there are some files amanda needs to store the status of your changer, but doesn't create by it's own. yust create the files it complains about by "touch /path/to/file" as amanda-user and all should work. AFAIK the names of these files are stored in the amanda config-file for your changer-script. Have a nice day Christoph
