Use amrmtape to remove a tape from the tapelist. You may then relabel your tape.

Hi everyone I have a HP-DAT 24*6 tape drive attached to my amanda Back-up server. I have few questions. i) I had earlier labelled all the six tapes. Then I replaced one of the tapes(slot 6) with the cleaning tape. I tried labelling the cleaning tape with the same label that I gave for the normal tape. But it gave me this error "amlabel: could not load slot "6": Cleaning Cartridge Installed and Ejected" ii) How do I in general relabel the tapes?When I tried amlabel it says tape already labelled . iii) How do I eject my magazine? I used the eject button in the tape drive to eject the magazine to place the cleaning tape into the magazine, but it loads the first tape and not the one(say 4) which was there before I ejected(which seems quite obvious). But how do I bring back to the original configuration(ie 4) iv) How do I skip the tapelist order? Suppose I want to backup for today at tape 5 while the default is 3. what should I do in this case? I would be grateful if I receive answer to most of the questions if not all. thanks in advance regards chandrasekar _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
