Gene - thanks for trying to help,
Currently the only reason that I can think of is that Amanda has not read
correctly our tape drive so I am re-running
#amtapetype -f /dev/rmt/0n
Add an estimate value! And it takes about 5 hours only. Without
an estimate it takes a week or so. Like this:
amtapetype -f /dev/rmt/0n -e 200g
On the other hand, writing a few bytes is enough to see it the drive
works.
About the problem: you did specify that device in your amanda.conf ?
(I believe that was what Gene was hinting about.)
