That'd probably be most enlightening. There are several debug and diagnostics files at /tmp/amanda. They follow that convention. Do you told to amanda to backup the /tmp directory (or / filesystem) ?

Re: amdump/amrecover problem
Hi, I'm sure the tape was loaded because I checked it by running amtape and the files are restored when I comment out the tapedev 0. Please have a look at the amidxtaped* file attached. It seems that parameter for the tape device argv [7]=0 is not what amrecover wants.
