When I try to use amlabel to set up tapes for my backup set, I get the following: Command: sudo -u amanda amlabel -f DailySet1 DailySet100 Output: rewinding, reading label, reading label: Input/output error rewinding, writing label DailySet100, checking label amlabel: no label found, are you sure /dev/st0 is non-rewinding?
I am using amanda version 2.4.2 on a redhat 8 box with kernel version 2.4.18-14. The tape device is on /dev/st0 The physical hardware is a Seagate STD224000N (Scorpion 24) DDS-3 single-tape drive. http://www.seagate.com/support/tape/specs/dds/std22400.html I have already determined that the problem is not with user permissions for the user amanda. I have already tried backing up files using tar as the user amanda with success. Although the purpose may be complete overkill, I am simply trying to back up one local directory at this stage. I am not sure if I defined the tapetype for the seagate drive correctly. I attached the amand.conf and disklist files (gzipped). If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!
