I don't have a tape library, so i have to use chg-manual and change tapes
manually. Amdump works perfectly but not amverify.
Why if i set runtapes > 1 i can't do amverify? Does it expect slot number every
run? The "-1" slot mean "no changer"?
Amdump has written 1 of 2 tape, this can influence amverify?
