Sir,
There is no such file in the /tmp/Amanda. Closes match is amidxtaped.debug.
I'm not sure if I should do this. After I change each new tape early every
morning, do I have to run "amrmtape Daily Dailyxxx" and then "amlabel Daily
Dailyxxx"?
Is there anyway I can just change the tape and then let the backup kick off
at night without me doing any extra work?
Thanks Sir

So, what's in /tmp/amanda/amidxtaped*debug on chino.master.com???

You must run amlabel on all tapes before using amdump, but you're trying
to run amrecover which implies you're using a tape you previously dumped
to with amdump.
