I've started to get the following message in my nightly emails:
*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [writing label: 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: twilley009.
This is showing up in my messages file:

is it possible your tape is physical write-protected?

Dec 3 01:08:19 duchess kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:6:0): tape is now frozen- use an
OFFLINE, REWIND or MTEOM command to clear this state.
Does this mean I have a defective tape, or is the problem worse than
that?
Jack.
