amrecover will not work as expected.

You have in your disklist:

> localhost work/04 /backup/PlanC3/bf381/docs/work {

I am not sure but I would not use something like "work/04" as diskname.

Edit to something like:

my.host.my.domain work04 /backup/PlanC3/bf381/docs/work {

(get rid of the "/" in "work/04").

Does any DLE run through here?
