What Amanda version? The closest you can get to $ amreadlabel CONF CONF-012 is $ amtape S3 current slot 23: time 20080702001502 label S3023 If you're using 2.6.0 and above, though, you could probably write a perl script named amreadlabel, based on amdevcheck. If you're into this idea, I'm at your disposal with all the assistance you need. As far as getting something like that in the codebase, I'd prefer perlifying amtape and adding a handy new subcommand like "current-label". If you're into *that* idea, I'm at your disposal with both assistance and an infinite supply of your beverage of choice! Dustin -- Storage Software Engineer http://www.zmanda.com
