I got into a situation where I missed tape changes for a few days, so my backups we put to the holding disk. In the process of dumping the data I inadvertently dumped two days to the same tape when messed up my tape pattern. To fix that I decided to mark the corresponding unneed tape (107) as no-reuse. After that Amanda insists on having a new tape, instead of the next one in line (108). I have reset 107 to be reusable, but amanda wont go back and reuse it now either.
This has happened to me before and the only way I found to fix it then was to remove and re-add all of the tapes, which is an arduous processes since I have to change the manually. I am running amanda 2.4.4p3 which is provided with Redhat Enterprise Linux 4. Any thoughts on how I can fix this without messing with all of my tapes?
