       Hostname  and  diskname  are special expression descibe in
       the "HOST & DISK EXPRESSION" section of amanda(8).  Dates-
       tamp  are  special  expression  describe in the "DATESTAMP
       EXPRESSION"  section  of  amanda(8).   For   example,   if
       diskname is "rz[23]a", it would match disks rz2a and rz3a.

It should (I think) go on and get the right one *as well*, but I'm not 
sure.  You could always 'mt fsf' past the wrong one, and or (if you're 
using amanda 2.4.4) use the -f option to amrestore.
