You would probably be able to confirm this by looking in the amanda
log/debug files for the amtape process (i.e.
/var/log/amanda/server/<CONFIG>/amtape.*.debug on Ubuntu) , but I'm pretty
sure that you do actually need the empty argument in order to disable
the interactivity, something like
private static final String AMTAPEOPT2 = "-ointeractivity=''";
(I am not particularly certain that interactivity is your specific
problem, but it seemed a plausible explaination and one that that was
fairly easy to test out...)

Note that in order to use the strace debugging, you'll probably need to
disable this timeout+kill logic -- otherwise the amtape process won't
hang out long enough for you to figure out what it's trying to do when
when it's "stuck"....
