I have six new tape ready to be used by my archive backup.

        :~/archive% amadmin archive tape
        The next Amanda run should go onto 6 new tapes.
        The next 6 new tapes already labelled are: A00190, A00196, A00197, 
A00198, A00199, A00200

>From above I run "amadmin archive tape" and it shows me the next 6 new tapes 
>that will be used.

Is it a guaranteed that it will use the tapes in this order? If not does it 
help loading the first tape manually? If not is there a way to force amanda to 
use the lower sequence number?

In my daily tapes, which gets used over and over, this is not such a big deal 
as the library handles the tapes. The archive is different as these tapes get 
removed and stored and I would like to have the tapes in the archive backup to 
be in sequence if possible. 

Thanks.

Thanks
