Interesting I have 2 tape drives on the library...

Scanning your system for tape devices...OK
Device | Address
------------------------+-----------------
IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 | /dev/rmt/0n
IBM ULTRIUM-TD3 | /dev/rmt/1n
Need to find out why the second tape isn't not working correctly.
However, I switched Amanda.conf to use /dev/rmt/0cn
Tried a amtape command and got this error
/opt/amanda/server/sbin/amtape Full update
amtape: scanning all 7 slots in tape-changer rack:
"/dev/rmt/0cn" uses deprecated device naming convention;
using "tape:/dev/rmt/0cn" instead.

Subject: Re: problems with amtape and amanda 2.6.0p2
Are you sure /dev/rmt/1cn is the device for the tape drive?
What's the output of:
mt -f /dev/rmt/1cn status
mt -f /dev/rmt/1cn rewind
