Stefan,
The settape section of the man page for amrecover says:
"settape [[server]:][tapedev|default]
If you want amrecover to use your changer, the tapedev must be equal
to the amrecover_changer setting on the server."
I used this setting in amanda.conf:
amrecover_changer chg-disk
then, in amrecover:
settape chg-disk
and the extract invokes the chg-disk script and sets the "./data"
sym-link to the correct slot automatically. Very nice!
Marc.
It appears that using "settape chg-disk" in amrecover
