I sent this email before but i couldn't get the answer or I didnt understand what I have read well and therefore still have the same kind of problem To summarize, I have 15 virtual tapes and I just want to extract a few files from one of these tapes (just testing amanda,yet).

OK, where are they?
What is the directory structure of these virtual tapes.

However, I got the below message (I understood that it tells me to load the tape test12 but it is already virtual so It is automatic I guess). Anyone,has an idea about what to be done in this case?It might me something very simple but since I am a new learner of Amanda I couldn't find the problem
  Thank you.

"""Extracting files using tape drive /dev/null on host localhost.

Even if you have your virtual tapes on disk, you won't find them
when reading from /dev/null .
