Personally, I've used amlabel -f in that sort of situation (the -f forces the tape to be relabeled even though is already has one and the new label is already in use) and it's worked fine. I would expect amrmtape to cause amanda to forget that the tape even exists and refuse to recognize it in the future (until relabeled).
