So let see if i understood all correctly .-)

I created 10 vtapes on a usb disk, as soon as the tapes gets full i must
put the tape in no-reuse and add another tape to the tapelist ??

How can i force amanda not to use another tape if theres free space on
the actual tape ??

Cheers
And again thanks for your help .-)
