Hi I have two amanda tape servers within the organisation I managed successful to do a disaster recovery exercise for main file server - worked accordingly but on the second tape server for our spin off company I get the the following I am able to run daily amdumps and amchecks with no error messages Thus please could you direct where I can find out whats causing the extract problem.

The makeup is identical and I checked the ~.amamdahosts file. localhost amanda localhost root server.co.uk amanda server.co.uk root Extracting files using tape drive /dev/nst0 on host server.co.uk.
