Hello,

I've been using amanda for two years or more. Sometimes, when the person in charge of changing the tape, forgets to change it, I just have to update the tapelist file and continue as if nothing happen. However, this time I haven't been able to solve the problem. This person forgot to change the tape once, and now it always gives me the following error:

These dumps were to tape humbolt-017.
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [[writing file: short write]].
Some dumps may have been left in the holding disk.
Run amflush to flush them to tape.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: humbolt-018.

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
 humbolt   /sda/seis lev 0 FAILED [out of tape]
 humbolt   /sda/seis lev 0 FAILED ["data write: Broken pipe"]
 humbolt   /sda/seis lev 0 FAILED [dump to tape failed]

In order to solve the problem, I did the amflush, but it doesn't do anything,....It just gives the following message:
amanda@humbolt(amanda)$ amflush diario
Scanning /var/dump...
Could not find any Amanda directories to flush.

¿¿¿Do any of you know how to solve this problem???

Best Regards

Adriana Liendo
