Another odd possibility I mention only because I never noticed the
"find" command of amadmin.

        amadmin DS1 find |
                tr -s ' ' '\t' |
                cut -f1,5 |
                grep '^2003' |
                grep -v '        ---$' |
                sort |
                uniq

Note that the same tape could be listed multiple times (if it
contains multiple amdumps).  So select the ones you want by
something other than a tail -n command at the end.

Also I think if your disk names might have spaces in them,
this may not work.
