Seems like your changer-setup does not properly work. You don�t need a tape-changer-script if you don�t use a tape-changer. >From amanda.conf: > # Specify tape device and/or tape changer.

Recheck your tapecycle-settings and your tape-labels. Sounds like your labels don�t fit. -- best regards, Stefan Stefan G. Weichinger mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
