I have Amanda setup and it works. There is one problem. After the first good run it starts not working on some directories in the disklist

This is the first dump.

 

These dumps were to tape Vol05.

The next tape Amanda expects to use is: a new tape.

As you can see some backed up and some did not. The Amanda client is on the Amanda server. Everything is on one computer.
