From the report you received, how much data it wrote to the tape?
USAGE BY TAPE:
Label Time Size % Nb Nc
DailySet1-03 0:17 70110807K 26.7 35 35
I don't know why you get a 'no space left' error after only 70GB.
It could be a broken tape or tape drive.
Look at the tape debug file, you get a better error message.

Hi Jean-Louis,
There is only Amanda 2.6.1p1 is available in public repository for Oracle
Linux 6.
Are you suggesting to build a fresh version of Amanda from there:
http://www.amanda.org/download.php?
I thought it was a space issue after migration and I replaced LTO5 tapedrive
and LTO-4 tapes that we used with Amanda 2.5 to LTO-6 tapedrive and LTO-6
tapes.
Usually 800GB was enough, but now I use 2.5TB tapes and still have the same
issues, I doubt that it is a space issue as I calculated all space required
for backup manually and even if count that there are all Leve 0 backups they
require less than 1 TB space.
I attached amdump trace and backup log from the last Amanda run. May be you
can say something looking at them?
Kind Regards,
Dmitry Lozitskiy

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

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.

Does anyone have a clue what these messages are talking about.
