In addition to the amverify mentionned here, the append patch contains
an amcompare commands that use tar --compare to actually compare level-0
backups to the tape, and possibly list files that aren't on tape but
are on disk, or backwards.

Hello everyone.

Does (or can) Amanda verify the contents of a tape after the backup to
verify that it backed up properly?  Or does it do something similar already?

Thanks in advance!
