Hi All,


I'm new to amanda, this is my first install. I've created amanda.conf and disklist files by the manuals in /etc/amanda/mydump.


Disklist contains the following line:

mymachine /var/www always-full


When I run


# su backup -c "/usr/sbin/amlabel mydump mylabel"

everything is OK.


Then I run


# su backup -c "/usr/sbin/amdump mydump"

and I get a mail within a few seconds with this content:

*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [cannot overwrite active tape mylabel].
Some dumps may have been left in the holding disk.
Run amflush to flush them to tape.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: a new tape.

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
  mymachine  /var/www lev 0 FAILED [disk /var/www, all estimate failed]
.
.
.
NOTES:
  planner: tapecycle (8) <= runspercycle (49)
  planner: Adding new disk mymachine:/var/www.
  driver: WARNING: got empty schedule from planner


I'm using debian sarge + amanda 2.4.4p2. What can be the problem?



Thanks,


Filburt
