Re: aborted amdump causes tape to be used
Hi, what about amrmtape ? That's exactly the designated job for it. Christoph Jean-Louis Martineau schrieb: On Mon, Jan 20, 2003 at 02:16:15PM -0500, Jeremy L.

aborted amdump causes tape to be used
I just aborted an amdump about a minute after it started because I forgot to specify a switch. When I tried to rerun the backup with the correct options, she wants me to insert a new tape, so I assume that she has marked that tape as having data on it. How do I tell her to forget everything about that aborted run and free up that tape? Is there a place I should be looking this kind of question up?
