amdump daily && mt -f /dev/nst0 offl
in my crontab.
(if it is Linux, syntax varies with OS)
I use chg-multi, with multiple drives, and I have this script to do my backups:
################################## #!/bin/sh
CONFIG=$1
/opt/local/sbin/amdump $CONFIG LOGF=`ls -t /var/opt/amanda/$CONFIG/log.2* | head -1` /opt/local/sbin/amtoc -a -t $LOGF
grep '^START taper .* label ' $LOGF |
while read line
do
/opt/local/sbin/amtape $CONFIG eject
/opt/local/sbin/amtape $CONFIG slot prev
done
###################################It generates an Table-of-contents for each tape and ejects those drives which have been used.
The executables may be installed in different places on your server.
