Hello everyone.
I was recently in need of a way to search through my Amanda indexes, so
I wrote a bash script to do just that. I have seen a few other people
on this list looking for a way to search the index, to I figured I'd
post my script. It works well for me, but YMMV.
I'm just going to attach the script to this message, since it isn't very
large, but for future reference, is there a better way to post this sort
of thing?

### Set TEMPFILE variables; remove the files before we start

### Find the amanda home directory in the password file
AMANDAHOME=`cat /etc/passwd |grep "^amanda:" | cut -d: -f 6`

### Get the index directory from the amanda.conf file

### Create a file of search patterns entered on the command line
shift 1

### Print a header
echo "LVL HOST DATE DISK FILE"

### Search through index dir for matches.
cd ${INDEXDIR}
for INDEX in `find . -print`
do
### Search inside each compressed index file;
for FILE in `zcat ${INDEX} 2>/dev/null | grep -if ${TEMPFILE1} 2>/dev/null`

### get the HOST and pad it out to 10 chars long (for neater printing)
SETHOSTTMP=`echo ${INDEX} | awk -F/ '{print $2}'`
SETHOST=`echo "${SETHOSTTMP}"'""""""""""' | sed 's/^\(..........\).*$/\1/'`

SETDISK=`echo "${SETDISKTMP}"'"""""""""""""""""""""""""' | sed 's/^\(.........................\).*$/\1/'`
### get the DATE and BACKUP LEVEL
DATELEVEL=`echo ${INDEX} | awk -F/ '{print $4}'`
SETDATE=`echo ${DATELEVEL} | awk -F_ '{print $1}'`
LEVEL=`echo ${DATELEVEL} | awk -F_ '{print $2}' | awk -F. '{print $1}'`
### Print all that, the name of the file and replace the pad char " with spaces
echo "${LEVEL} ${SETHOST}${SETDATE} ${SETDISK}${FILE}"| sed 's/\"/ /g' | grep ${DATESTRING}
done

### Clean up
rm ${TEMPFILE1}
