You may use tape to for anything now, including as decoration in
the christmas tree.
But the label is still on the tape. You can overwrite it with any
program. There is nothing sp

Hi,
Is it sufficient enough to just run "amrmtape -n conf TAPE001"
so that Amanda will not use this tape for backup?
I try to run "amrmtape -n conf TAPE001", but Amanda still use that tape
to backup stuff. Is there any other command I need to run to remove the
Amanda label?
Thanks
