[McGraw, Robert P.]
John,
Thanks for your comment but these are tar backups.
I believe Paul Bijnens answered the question in another email. I was
thinking that this was an "amanda error" when in fact it was an informative
message telling me that it failed the level 1 test and is going to do the
level 0.
Thanks
Robert
