Hi,

I just got my tape library back online, and I thought backups should be good
to go now, but it seems that maybe all those days that i missed out on backups
have confused amanda or something.  No backups occured over the weekend (I had
changed my crontab to make it run 7 days a week), but I didn't get any emails
from amanda over the weekend.  I tried running 'amadmin DailySet1 balance', and
it reports the following:

 due-date  #fs    orig KB     out KB   balance

----------------------------------------------
TOTAL       30  276353560  276353560  39479080
  (estimated 7 runs per dumpcycle)

How come there is nothing scheduled for Monday-Friday?  My crontab is set back
to running amanda Monday-Saturday (does this utitity even read the crontab?
I'm not sure how it works).  Anyway, I flushed the old backups (from last week)
to tape w/ no difficulty, so I think it should be able to dump stuff to tape...
I'll run amdump manualy tonight if i can't figure this out, but it would be nice
to figure this thing out.

Thanks!
