I specified the dump type as comp-root-tar. I added index yes in the
dump type in amanda.conf file. When I ran "amrecover -C Daily -s
itchy.applimation.com", I got an error saying "no indexing records".
When I ran "amrestore /dev/nst0 etc", I got "end of file" error.
Attached, please find my amanda.conf and disklist files. Please help.
Thank you, Lei

That means you have one line in disklist.

And the strange thing is that FAILED QUEUE just as well as
DONE QUEUE is empty. I don't understand why (yet).
Never seen that before...
Maybe you have the new statistics based estimates enabled?
I did not try those yet -- no time to test, no need in my environment.
I wonder what happens when you enable this for a new DLE.

But the schedule that planner generates is empty (there should be
some lines like "DUMP itchy... somehexflags /etc ...".
So it is correct that the tape just contains a label, but is
empty otherwise.
We need more information here. Like the dislist, and dumptype
used for that DLE.
