I have also been running Amanda for a long time. When I implemented the
proposed work-around, I found I had no definition of amgtar.
Is there a preferred canonical (no wordplay intended) definition,

Hi Stefan,
I'd recommend against btrfs and go for ZFS instead (also on Linux).
Although I was a (really) great fan of btrfs; it just seemed to have too
much bugs, sometimes even resulting in loss of data.
My experience is different, my btrfs-p

Hello Heiko,
I usually used the amrestore command to find out, which tapes I would need for

So this answers the question, which tapes (=storage) is used for backups of a
particular DLE.

As Stefan said, the key question is why Amanda is going into degraded
