RE: amrecover problem

Thanks for the help. Settape only sets the server/device. I read the
man pages several times. I couldn't find info about how to specify
which tape you want to restore from in amrecover. Just in case some
people didn't read my previous emails. Here is what I was trying to do.
I did four full backups on the same day. When I tried to restore using
amrecover, it always asked for the first backup tape. How can I change
to a different backup tape? When I ran history command in amrecover,
here is the result:
201- 2005-08-01 0 BiWeeklySet101 1
201- 2005-08-01 0 BiWeeklySet102 1
201- 2005-08-01 0 BiWeeklySet103 1
201- 2005-08-01 0 BiWeeklySet104 1
The following is my amanda.conf
dumpcycle 0
runspercycle 0
tapecycle 4 tapes
#runtapes 1
#tpchanger "chg-manual"
tapedev "/dev/nst0"
rawtapedev "/dev/null"
define dumptype global {
comment "Global definitions"
# This is quite useful for setting global parameters, so you don't
have
# to type them everywhere. All dumptype definitions in this sample
file
# do include these definitions, either directly or indirectly.
# There's nothing special about the name `global'; if you create any
# dumptype that does not contain the word `global' or the name of
any
# other dumptype that contains it, these definitions won't apply.
# Note that these definitions may be overridden in other
# dumptypes, if the redefinitions appear *after* the `global'
# dumptype name.
# You may want to use this for globally enabling or disabling
# indexing, recording, etc. Some examples:
# index yes
# record no
}
define dumptype always-full {
global
program "GNUTAR"
comment "Full dump of this filesystem always"
compress none
index yes
priority high
}
Please help.
Thank you,
Lei
