*sigh* Marketers lie. Those tapes have 10GB native capacity, and do not do hardware compression. The advertised 20GB capacity is assuming 2x compression, which you obviously aren't getting. Crank you tapelength down to the *actual* length of 10GB, and let amanda sort it out. Of course, if you have any disk list entries with a compressed size > 10GB, you'll need to split them up. -- Joshua Baker-LePain Department of Biomedical Engineering Duke University
