Karsten, You must set an interactivity (man amanda-interactivity):
define interactivity email { comment "interactivity email" plugin "email" property "mailto" "root" property "resend_delay" "0" } interactivity email Jean-Louis On 02/12/2013 09:06 AM, Karsten Fuhrmann wrote:
Hello, i have a problem with the manual tape changer configuration. I set runtapes 2 and tpchanger "chg-single:tape:/dev/nsa0" But still after amanda fills up the first tape, amanda quits with a 'partial taper: No acceptable volumes found' message. What i want is amanda to send my an email that i should load the next tape and then continue with the backup. I am using amanda 3.3.0 in a cronjob with an LTO4-Ultrium tape drive.
