thanks for the workaround howto but I would prefer to have a fully working amanda setup ;-) I fiddle with the parameters and managed to get amrecover working. Seems one has to relabel and/or edit the tapelist as well. I read the numerous how-to-relabel-postings ... couldn't we get a *tool* doing that? I mean, other software projects improve over time ;-) Another thought: if the blocksize of the tapetype and the blocksize of the changer-definition mismatch: shouldn't there be a warning? Something in amcheck or so ... Right now we get errors in dmesg etc ... not very user-friendly IMO. greets, Stefan
