That's a very reasonable expectation of your backup software! At this point, Amanda still does not support more than one tapetype (length, in particular) in a single run. Amanda would never ask you to move a tape to a new changer - I don't think anyone would be willing to do that! As for breaking ties with multiple tapes -- I assume you mean with regard to which tape should be overwritten next? Yes, that's by order in the tapelist.
