I am installing amanda for the first time and have problems labeling tapes for

Don't fear the steps you have to take.
I assume you try to install and setup the most recent AMANDA-release

shoulders.

Have you gone to the adaptec site and updated the firmware for the
39160? We had to do that here before it worked, but haven't had a
problem since. Likewise our initial symptoms were failure to operate a
Scorpion DDS drive.

Jack Parker

Hi,
I've recently seen Amanda fail to write a dump to tape fully (write
