The next Amanda run should go onto 6 new tapes.
The next 6 new tapes already labelled are: A00221, A00222, A00224,
A00225, A00226, A00223
Ha, they are new tapes, there is no order for new tape, amanda use the
first one.

I am trying to determine what tape order amanda uses when requesting a reuse

My amanda.conf is configured to use slots 31-36 for my archive tapes. These
slots contain the following tapes.

Storage Element 32

Dear everybody,
I'm using Amanda 2.5.1p3, and up to a few days ago it worked really
good. But the person in charge to change the tape forgot to do it, and I
realized it one week later when I came back to the office. When I had an
older version I used to change the order of the tape on the

Forget about tape order. It's not important. AMANDA bases the order on
what is expiring/expired. So just forget about tape order, it's going to
get out of whack. Especially as you replace tapes due to wear.

As
right, but since I have 24 tapes and my dumpcycle is 1 week, I should
never have to go that far back as to need these tapes.

Hi,
I recently added 10 new tapes for a total of 30 in my amanda cycle, but
when I was labelling them amanda was not changing to the correct slot,
as a consequence some tapes were labeled more than once since I used the
force option.
Later I went back and re-labeled them 21-30, manually
I'm interested in changing my tape order, and I've found the very useful
messages in this regard. But then when I went to look at my tapelist it
was empty! It is r/w by the amanda user, and in the location specified by
the amanda.conf file. Why would this not be getting written?

It you change the datestamp of a tape then amanda will lose all informations
of what's on
:
These dumps were to tape DailySet1-03.

The next tape Amanda expects to use is: DailySet1-05.
So DailySet1-04 is being bypassed here.
Note that another way to see the tape order is:

Hello...
I have several machines that I back up using amanda. All but one are on
the same network (100Mbit). The other one is across a T1(1.5Mbit) line.
I noticed the following behavour:

Are you saying no
There is no tape activity for any backups started after the remote
(slow) backup started.
I'd need to see the amdump.NN file to diagnose this any further.
It doesn't make any sense and I've never seen Amanda defer writing
to tape. When taper gets done with one file driver always gives it

Is it possible to have the email reports list the file systems in the order
they were written to tape?
this would make it much easier to locate a file on the tape, especially if
you have a lot of file systems.
