In your amanda.conf file, change tapedev to the non-rewinding device,
/dev/nst0:
tapedev "/dev/nst0"

Hi
I have just installed Amanda 2.42 on a Linux server running Red Hat 7.1. =
I have done the configuration and followed the instruction provided as =
best as possible. I am having a problem it trying to label a tape drive =
and I keep getting this error
amlabel dailyset dailyset111
rewinding, reading label, not an amanda tape
rewinding, writing label, daily111=20
checking label
amlabel o label found are you sure /dev/st0 is non rewinding
the tape drive is a quantum dlt2000 attached to scsci id 0
I have looked up the man pages for amlabel and there was a error =
description for the above and it says its might have to do with =
misconfiguring Amanda with a rewinding tape device instead of a =
non-rewinding device name for tape=20
How do I check this.
Thanks
Chandra
