It worked OK this way for a while, then got confused; then I deleted the
contents file and
it re-created. I later decided I should use two different files, even though
the configs
were sharing the same robot slots (not both run at the same time).
I set that file, it was created and filled.
The admin there will test if the behaviour changes when he doesn't
provide the next tapes.
In general I would like to know what makes amanda search over and over
again. Is it possible that the missing changerfile lead to this? As in
"amanda can't remember it has looked into these slots already" .... ?
