This was the report I got last night during my amdump test. What can you say 
about it?
I tried doing an "mt erase 0" but looks like that the previous label is still there. I 
even tried su amanda -c "amlabel -f Daily Daily01", it forces it but I got a feeling that 
the old label is still there.
What would be the command to totally erase everything on my tape, including the 
labels?

amlabel -f does rewrite the label no matter what label used to be there.
It looks like Amanda took the Daily01 label and did a backup to it.
It also appears that might have been the only tape you labeled and
Amanda is looking for another tape matching labelstr in your config, so
it was looking for Daily001. If you had already labeled a Daily02 it
would have asked for that.
 If you were expecting Amanda to keep writing to the same tape, it
won't until you've completed tapecycle number of runs.
