Hi again
The reason to reset as I only left the correct tapetype that was
produced using amtapetype and thus commented out the remainder and I got
this error below
"/etc/amanda/DailySet1/amanda.conf", line 79: tapetype HP-DAT not
defined
So I assume that it's still assuming the previous tapetype and thus I am
unable to backup.
Cheers
