In any case, I currently have both systems flushing to tape using

good to track this down. It's also puzzling that it just turned up
R.e. tracking this down: my thought is to see if we can track down the
problem by tweaking the code for lexical.pm -- that way, you can trigger
test runs using "amcheck -otaperscan=taper_lexical" without running the
risk of having a normal cron job attempt to run the code you are in the
middle of modifying.
I've attached a patch which, hopefully, will both fix the
"uninitialized" warning messages that have been appearing in the logs
and also print some debugging info as it loops through the tape inventory
so we can see if it dies in the middle of that loop.
So, when you are ready to investigate further, save a copy of the
original /usr/local/share/perl/5.22.1/Amanda/Taper/Scan/lexical.pm, then
apply the patch to the "live" lexical.pm file, and then try running
amcheck -s (with lexical scan) again.
You may have to fix unblanced quotes or whatever typos in the patched
lines, but hopefully you'll soon get a log file which lists the tapes in
the inventory (but doesn't have the warning lines any more)... at which
point, send me those log lines....
