A quick idea (no big solution): use "amadmin no-reuse" (or edit the
reuse "flag" in tapelist) to temporarily disable all the tapes except
the one freshly labelled vtape. By doing that you force amanda to use
*this* tape with *this* label. Do so until you h

Hello,
I discovered this problem the first time in 3.1.1 and it's still in 3.2.0:
When I label a tape, the 'tapelist' file contains e. g.
0 KAS056 reuse
But amdump/amflush doesn't accept this tape:
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [No acceptable volumes found].
There are 209562M of dumps left
deprecated), they may be files with extensions such as .dir and .pag.
Then, remove any log files from the log directory:
|log.TIMESTAMP.count| and |amdump.count|. Finally, remove the
|tapelist| file, stored in the directory that contains |amanda.conf|,
unless |amanda.conf| specifies otherwise

similar and it's quite annoying:
Amcheck complains that tapelist isn't writeable. And it's true: it's
not writeable, and that's because Amanda made it that way during the
previous run. Then, when you change the permissions on tapelist,
amcheck can see it, and that's when amcheck can start to tell you
manually create the 'tapelist'
file so that amanda will think that it's recycling the tapes, or re-label
all of them using amlabel (if it works) in order to give amanda the right
info it needs in order to start cycling through the tapes one per night as
per what I'm intending to achieve?

Minor addendum,
Don't even allow blank lines in the file when you create it.
I.e., do not create it with an editor.

It you change the datestamp of a tape then amanda will lose all informations
