I have just a tricky question:
I observed that in Fedora we are delivering amanda where some binaries

Are the suid bits really needed for amanda working properly?

Can you run strace on the process? and gdb to get a few stacktrace?

You can define the block size as the BLOCK-SIZE device property in the
changer section or in the tapetype, the device-property is used if it is
set.
You can define the read_block_size as the READ-BLOCK-SIZE device
property in the changer section or in the tapetype, the device-property
Michael,
On the server, the global tpchanger and tapedev are now synonymous, all
setting must be put in the changer section.
On the client, only tapedev can be set, but you should set it to the
name of the changer:
tapedev my_vtapes

Steven,
The complete output of mtx is not logged, run it on the command line to
get the complete output:
/usr/sbin/mtx -f /dev/changer nobarcode status
'it always works the 2nd time', Did it always works the 3rd and 4th
time? When is the first time?

Maybe you defined the tape larger than it is?
Are you sure the tape can hold 80M of data?
Are you using hardware compression?

amanda 3.3 and before do not have crc check.
crc check is already in the development tree and will be included in the
next major release.
Restoring from a corrupted archive depend of the tool used.
gtar can generally restore corrupted archive, some manual
intervention can be required.

You could add a pre-dle-estimate/pre-dle-backup script that put the list
of files in a file and configure an 'exclude list' for amgtar to use
that file.
If you backup only files (no directory) then amanda will never notice
when files are removed, so a restore will also restore
