Hi,

Last night I forgot to change tapes, so all the dumps were made to the
holding disk. Normally I would change the tape in the morning and run
amflush, and everything would work fine. But this morning, when I tried
to run amflush, it failed immediately and sent me this error message:
FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
  taper: FATAL shmget: (655440 tapebufs) No space left on device
  amflush: ERROR Cannot flush without tape.  Try again.

The correct tape is sitting in the drive, and amcheck gives the correct
output:
