I'd refine the bug: amanda flushes to the write-protected tape, the dump is removed from the holding disk (of course it's not on tape), reports the dump were to Daily-24 and re-expects the same tape.


Amanda flushed nothing to the write-protected tape, it tried but it failed to write it.
The dump should have been left on holding disk.
It's hard to believe it removed the dump from holding disk? Can you prove it? Show that a dump was done (log file) and it is not on holding disk (ls)
Sorry - You are right, it did not dropped the data.

Somewhat confused me, that there was a very small delta between Sep 26 and Sep 27. I checked the reports thoroughly and it was almost all level 1, so I understand now.

Your bug definition is the correct one.


What is strange is that it didn't write to Daily-25, there might be a lot of reason.
Daily-25 wasn't loaded into any of the tape drives.
Daily-23 and Daily-24 was loaded.
