I'm still having a problem with one partition that amanda keeps trying
to do a level 0 backup for, and fails.  Why will it not back up this
partition all by itself, or with just a couple of other things?

Is it larger than the 18GB taper was able to write to tape?  Also, did
all the output come from the same run, because taper claims it wrote 18GB
when it hit EOT, but the stats only show writing 564MB.

These dumps were to tape Indyme001.
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [[writing file: No space left on device]].
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: Indyme002.
