Hello, A very strange thing just happened. I had a tape labeled ESSDUMP10 but I did amcheck and I got:
su - backup "amcheck weekly -s weekly" Amanda Tape Server Host Check ----------------------------- Holding disk /BACKUP/holding: 72751 MB disk space available, using 72751 MB slot 1: read label `ESSDUMP08', date `20060627' slot 2: read label `ESSDUMP09', date `20060701' slot 3: not an amanda tape slot 4: read label `ESSDUMP11', date `20060708' slot 5: read label `ESSDUMP12', date `20060710' slot 6: read label `ESSDUMP13', date `20060520 On the last weekend the backup worked fine. I think that all the data is there (I hope). Is there a way to recover the label and correct date? The only thing I did was update from version 2.5.0 to 2.5.0p2 (i'm using the debian packages) Also get: amrestore /dev/nst0 amrestore: short file header block: 42 bytes amrestore: WARNING: not at start of tape, file numbers will be offset amrestore: error reading file header: Input/output error Does anyone have an idea what could have trigered this? Best regards, Luis
