Tom,

What OS and dump version was the data backed up from? What OS and dump version 
are you trying to restore to?

In general, the dump type (xfsdump, vdump, etc.) and sometimes even the 
version must be the same for backup and restore. This is an unfortunate 
consequence of Amanda's use of native tools.

Cheers,

--Ian
