Hello,

   Have been using amanda for approximately 3 years and am delighted with
   the software.

   I have a problem which I believe is related to device sharing.

   The OS is CentOS 5.10 and I am running amanda 3.3.3.

   Have a SUN SL500 with three LT05 drives, a 90 tape library, and a 15
   slot cap loader.

   Attached files are failed_12a.rpt, works_12a.rpt, the atape.sh script
   (used to manipulate the tape robot), and the amanda.conf file.

   Situation:
      The AMADSet12a dump process was running and was writing to the
      8th tape of the set.

      I was using the atape.sh script to empty and load the library for
      the next dump set.

      The dump failed, this has happened several times in the past, and I
      believe it is due to amanda not dealing with a busy tape robot.

      Is there a parameter for setting the time that Amanda should wait for
      a tape to load or for the robot to be available to service a request?

   Thank you in advance...have a nice day!
