I just started using amplot, and am having some difficulty. All my plots seem to be
for legal size paper, 14 inches long. Any way to change them into letter? I don't see
any text at the top, as the man page indicates; it runs off the page just above the
'100%' in the holding disk area.
Thanks.

Eric, Paul,
Thanks for all your help. Looks like we have a tape drive that's
going
south on us from the checks we've run over the weekend. We've
already got a new drive, just need to get it installed.

Hi Paul,
Many thanks for your advice! It will be very useful.
Ahh, nice set up, that's what I have and really like it. Mine has a
barcode reader in it too, though I've not spent the time to configure
that yet (it's on the todo list when I find some more 'round tuits' :)

Is Amanda capable of this kind of operation?
Yes.
And your boss is right :-) When restoring individual files (as
opposed to disaster-recovering an entire partition), doing it
this way is much
I have never bothered setting up or using the restore component of Amanda (amrestore).
I dd the backup from the tape, uncompress if necessary and pipe to restore or tar -x.
I put the restored file in my (root or amanda) directory and could then compare it to
the existing file if I wanted to. In

It comes back with :
bash-2.04# mt -f /dev/pass2 status
mt: /dev/pass2: Operation not permitted
Are you saying i should be able to access
/dev/pass2 as a regular tape drive ?
i read somewhere sometimes you have to use
the changer as tapedev, tried that tho, same
results.
With best regards,
Thank you to all for you answers. I think at this point, it's all over but the
actual implementation.

I think that the first error, when reading, is caused by trying to read

Yup. I was trying to set up amanda using chg-zd-mtx. mtx -f /dev/sg5
yielded info on the changer, and mtx -f /dev/sg4 yielded info on the
drive so I figured tapedev should be /dev/sg4. When I couldn't get the
tests to work, I looked at the script and discovered that in the places
