Use ipcrm -m <id> to remove them and try amflush again.

It appears taper is not cleaning up properly. tape_writer_side should call
detach_buffers() in case 'Q' to explicitly detach the shared memory (might
be required for Solaris)

However, when I did
ps -ef | grep amanda
I couldn't find any processes running as amanda. I also tried running
amflush using the next tape in the cycle (I couldn't find any spare
tapes that worked with the drive) and got the same error about no
space
left on the device.
