Why upgrade to an old version? You should upgrade again.
It's hard to say something because you didn't posted enough information.
I will guess is that amanda need more tape space to do the backup
according to your configuration, you should increase runtapes.

Hello,
I just recently migrated amanda software from version 2.5.0p2:
# uname -a
Linux asp-al-backup 2.6.18-128.2.1.4.25.el5xen #1 SMP Tue Mar 23
12:43:27 EDT 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
# rpm -qa | grep amanda
amanda-server-2.5.0p2-8.el5
amanda-client-2.5.0p2-8.el5
amanda-2.5.0p2-9.el5
to a 2.6.1p1 version:
# uname -a
Linux asp-al-backup 3.8.13-55.1.5.el6uek.x86_64 #2 SMP Wed Jan 28
17:03:28 PST 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
# rpm -qa | grep amanda
amanda-server-2.6.1p2-8.el6.x86_64
amanda-client-2.6.1p2-8.el6.x86_64
amanda-2.6.1p2-8.el6.x86_64
Before the upgrade my backups were running smoothly without a fail,
but after the upgrade I'm facinig partially backups every amanda run.
The error it finishes with:
Hostname: asp-al-backup
Org : PMKRS Daily
Config : DailySet1
Date : February 3, 2015
These dumps were to tape DailySet1-03.
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [runtapes volumes already written].
There are 76826M of dumps left in the holding disk.
Run amflush to flush them to tape.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: 1 new tape.
