I don't know why it will not use the new tapes, maybe order in the tapelist?

However, as a workaround, if you increase the tapecycle parameter above
the number already used, amanda should go looking for a new tape.

Hello Marc,

I can´t see this in my amanda installation here. How many tapes have you got 
and how is your tapecycle set?

Regards,
Dennis

Why does Amanda not use my new labled tapes?

2011-07-27 Thread Marc Muehlfeld

Hi,

I increased my vTape pool during the last days, but amanda is still only 
writing to the old tapes that were already in use and not to the new ones.


If I change the tapelist entry from
> 0 KDD181 reuse
to an old date
> 210100 KDD181 reuse
the vTape is used in the next run.

I found a similar bug in an earlier version last april, where Jean-Louis wrote 
a working patch for:

Currently I'm using Amanda 3.3.0 (selfcompiled) on Scientific Linux 6 (x86_64).

Regards,
Marc
