This means that one of the "parts" that Amanda tried to write to tape
failed.  Amanda generally assumes that any tape error means it's out
of tape, since many UNIX tape drivers do not provide any additional
information.  When that is the case, it re-tries that part on the next
tape.

Unfortunately, your runtapes prevented Amanda from using an additional tape.

Overall, I think what's happened is that your backups have grown
larger than your tapes.
