I have a 5 tapes changer.

I currently have runtapes=2 in my amanda config. Most of my backups
only need a single tape. If I put runtapes=1 in my config, what
happens if amanda needs more than 1 tape (if it gets to EOM on the
tape) ?

Will it take the next tape in the changer or continue in degraded mode
and leave the dumps on the holding disk ?

In other words, is runtapes only used by the planner ?

Thanks a lot
