Getting the current fs position

[Marc Tardif]

I'm using amanda 2.4.2p2 with a patch to append backups to
the same tape. Everything works well and I have managed to
retrieve files using amrecover. Problem is, after running
that command, I'm guessing I need to reset the position of
the tape to 1 beyond the last filesystem written to tape. Is
there a command to do this? I looked around and it would
seem amadmin with the balance option should return that
value, but it does not return the total number of
filesystems written to disk to date. So how can I find this
information?
