If you saying that AMANDA doesn't use tapes without a "label", you have
answered my question. Although why does it say: "This is not an amanda
tape. Insert tape labled "Monday" or a new tape" , when it won't back up
onto a "new" tape.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I would like to see a nicer way around
doing a "forced" backup outside of ones cycle.
