 Perhaps amgetconf was accidentally removed?  You may need to restore
 from a backup (which could be fun if other parts of Amanda have been
 deleted) or reinstall.

 IIRC I have seen an amanda client rpm package which only included the
 amgetconf
 manpage, and nothing else with that name.

Thank you for all your suggestions! Just want to let you know that I
reinstalled the amanda-client port (I am on a FreeBSD) and amgetconf is
now working as expected. Backups resumed! :) Ufff... you can imagine that
this makes me happy :)

Thank you!

 Hi Guys,
 
 Long time did not post message here. I was thinking of making Amanda can do
 an auto amrecover by monthly, Actually I have to burn backups into DVD. I
 have /home, /etc, /usr/local and /var/lib/mysql and I have more than 30
 servers. It was very tedious to sethost, setdisk and extract one by one DLE.
 
 Is there any script or anything that can less my job tasks. Thanks.

Unfortunately, amrecover is not script-friendly. I think your options
are:
* use some Expect-like tool
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expect
  http://search.cpan.org/~rgiersig/Expect/Expect.pod
* write a script using amfetchdump or amrestore to fetch images and then
extract them

A rewrite of amrecover in Perl is expected sometime, but I don't think
it will happen for a while because a good number of pieces it needs also
need to be Perl-ified. What sort of interface would be convenient for
you? Would you be willing to do some of the coding for this?

Cheers,
