Hi
What means "short write?", I got this error whit one of my disks
(/backup/d26 below) and the rest of dumps failed with an "out of tape"
even only 34% are used. Maybe an hw error?, tape cleaning needed?
wrong, see a few lines later...
(NOTE, I only allow full backups, levels 1 are forced to skip)
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [[writing file: short write]].
Some dumps may have been left in the holding disk.
Run amflush to flush them to tape.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: WTRANSNET-001.

here it tells you it wrote 19,9 GB of data to tape before it hit
eot(short write). the 34.1% Tape usage are only the dumps which were
correctly written to tape. The size of the failed dump is not counted.
You know amanda can't handle a single dump larger than a tape, do you?
I guess you'll have to split your partition in multiple disklist-entrys
using tar.
