I'm trying to recover some file from my recentrly created tape with amdump, and as amrecover says, I'm have tryed to "set config,host before setting disk", but when I run sethost rasillo.pl.local, I get "501 Host rasillo.pl.local is not in your disklist".
Why?

Here is the full output of the amrecover execution:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[root@rasillo amanda]# amrecover -C rasillo.pl.local

So your config is named "rasillo.pl.local", same as the hostname.
(Do you plan to make a separate config for each client?)

AMRECOVER Version 2.4.4p3. Contacting server on localhost ...
220 rasillo AMANDA index server (2.4.4p3) ready.
200 Access OK
Setting restore date to today (2006-02-24)
200 Working date set to 2006-02-24.
Warning: no log files found for tape lunes written 2006-02-24

"...tape lunes...":  naming tapes after weekdays will
get you into trouble when you have a day of on monday...
better just number them, and use them round-robin.

And, it seems the log files are gone!  Did you remove them?
Certain files have "log" in their name, but actually Amanda
uses those as the information source to locate tapes etc.
