You could force amanda to forget that its written the tape, but
doing so throws the schedule for the successful partitions out
of wack and as amanda will not append to the tape, it will overwrite
the tape, you may make recovery of something else difficult/impossible.

Don't you have enough tapes in the tape pool to run the job again on
the next volume ?
