Makes sense. And I've managed to mess up my virtual tapes. Based on
your email I thought I would delete some of my virtual tapes using
rm(1). I did, but then wanted to add some back. I recreated them
with mkdir(1), but when I try to label them I get
amlabel: label DailySet1-25 already on a tape
I assume this is because /etc/amanda/DailySet1/tapelist already has
this label listed.
Do I need to relabel the tapes I deleted and then added back?
