Hi all..
I'm having a lot of troubles in restoring amanda backups...
I have an HP's T20i Travan Tape in a Linux 2.2.14-5.0 kernel box...
When I run:
> /usr/sbin/amrecover -C DailyBack -d /dev/nst0
I select the file I want to restore, I start the 'extract' command and
I obtain:
"
...
Extracting files using tape drive /dev/nst0 on host localhost.
The following tapes are needed: DailyBack109
Restoring files into directory /tmp/amanda
Continue? [Y/n]: Y
Load tape DailyBack109 now

EOF, check amidxtaped.debug file.
amrecover: short block 0 bytes

The amidxtaped.debug says:
"
