Hi,

I'm trying to configure a tapeless amanda ...

I've configured many directories as the amanda tapeless HowTo said ( 
/backup/amanda/GARBI[01..11] -> 11 directories for 11 "slots"). I want to label 
each slot, but when I do:

$amtape <mypolicy> slot 1 
$amlabel <mypolicy> <mylabel> slot 1 

amtape returns  "amtape: could not load slot 1: file:/backup/amanda/GARBI01: 
not a device file". The same with amlabel. 

About config:

* Debian Woody
* /backup/amanda and /backup/amanda/GARBI* -> chmod 770 and chown backup:backup 
applied
* created GARBI*/data directories 
* changer.conf -> "file:/backup/amanda/GARBI[01..11]"  for each slot descriptor
* amanda.conf -> using a HARD-DISK device (50000 mbytes) and hard-disk-tar 
descriptor
* Must I have an "chg-multi" script on my Debian? (I don't found it)

Any idea? 

thanks in advance,
