We have an amanda server on Solaris and some clients on HP, Solaris, Aix.  We use a Weekly config to do full backupson Fridays and a Daily config to load balance the incrementals across the rest of the week.  On Monday, I wished to do a test restore of random files from each client, to check that the backup had worked.  This was working fine on Monday, the day after the backups, but I could not finish them all and decided to finish them off today (Tuesday).  However, when I try to run amrecover with  the Weekly tape loaded in the drive, I am getting problems (which I have recorded at the end of the email).
 
I tried setting the date to match yesterday's but it still can't seem to find the files.  I was wondering  what I am doing wrong or whether this means that only the most recently backed up versions of files can be restored?
 
Manay thanks
