I am using amanda and have been happy with it, but now there is a 20GB

I have in the past needed to reuse a tape that had the backups fail for some
reason or another and just reset the date code in
/var/spool/amanda/config/tapelist to 0 instead of say, 20050318
DailySet101. So long as the date isn't set, AMANDA will think it's a new
tape regardless of what
