I changed the runtapes to 5 and it still will not change tapes.  IT
fills up the first one and then runs out of tape. I am wondering why the
next tape it says it needs to use is "a new tape" instead of a tape
label.

These dumps were to tape daily24.
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [[new tape not found in rack]].
Some dumps may have been left in the holding disk.
Run amflush to flush them to tape.
The next 5 tapes Amanda expects to used are: a new tape, a new tape, a
new tape, a new tape, a new tape.

Question was already asked, but not aswered.  What are the settings
in amanda.conf about your changer?

(e.g. Are you using the changer, or are you just using /dev/rmt/0 instead?)
