Okay, sounds like things are back to working "normally" on that server,
right?
So, do you still have a second server which is getting coredumps (at
least with the oldest taperscan)?
Based on the investigation so far, it seems like the crash is caused by
tape-inventory records which have no label text along with some specific
other data field values.
If you post the /usr/local/var/amanda/chg-robot-dev-tape-by-id-scsi*
changer state file that other server, we can double check that such
entries exist over there, too.
(Assume they do, then I guess the question will be whether you want to
apply the same ScanInventory.pm patch there, or if you instead want to
try clearing that/those bad inventory record(s) without changing the
installed code on that box....)
