Your tape was not rewound. Either, manually rewind the tape and (to speed up) optionally position manually with "mt fsf" to just before the image you need. Or better, add these parameters to amanda.conf:
amrecover_do_fsf on amrecover_check_label on
(available since 2.4.3 I believe), and then amanda does this for you.
The thing is, if I'm running:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] amanda]# amrestore /dev/nst0 ^iulian$ ^/$ 20040317
The dumpfile is restored corectly on the amanda-server machine.
Probably after you (accidently?) rewound the tape.
