I've got a bit of a strage issue here. All tapes have been labelled and i
did a couple of test runs with all disks in the disklist commented out so it
just ran through its cycle and all 7 tapes were fine.

that was yesterday

today doing an amcheck i am told that tape01 is not am amanda tape when it
is. It was labelled but when i queried the tape today it had gone!

has anyone ever seen this before or offer any idea why a label might just
get deleted?

$ amcheck gt-host
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
Holding disk /var/spool/amanda: 13925552 KB disk space available, that's
plenty
amcheck-server: slot 7: date 20030618 label gthost07 (first labelstr match)
amcheck-server: slot 1: not an amanda tape
amcheck-server: slot 2: date 20030618 label gthost02 (labelstr match)
amcheck-server: slot 3: date 20030618 label gthost03 (labelstr match)
amcheck-server: slot 4: date 20030618 label gthost04 (labelstr match)
amcheck-server: slot 5: date 20030618 label gthost05 (labelstr match)
amcheck-server: slot 6: date 20030618 label gthost06 (labelstr match)

and i have since labelled it again fine?

$ amtape gt-host current

slot 1: date X        label gthost01
