Ok. I must label every tape to get a working index.
But I only have DailySet100 up to DailySet199. What happened when I'am at
199 and want to label the next tape? I think I have to start at DailySet100
again but what happened with the index/tape that was DailySet100 before?
Change/extend the regexpr for "labelstr" in amanda.conf. Mine is:
labelstr ARCHIVE-[0-9][0-9][0-9]
That would count up to 999 tapes (I started at 001). If necessary
make it four digits.
I bet you won't even have a suitable tapedrive that can read your
tapes 20 years from now (doing 50 tapes each year).
If it is really for permanent archiving, you can label the tapes
like: ARCH-2005-JAN-30 (there is no requirement that labels
must follow numerically or alphabetically):
labelstr ARCH-[0-9][0-9][0-9]-[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z]-[0-9][0-9]
