  • When trying to recover files from a backup, amrecover says:
    "EOF, check amidxtaped..debug file on localhost."
    "amrecover: short block 0 bytes"
    "UNKNOWN file"
    "amrecover: Can't read file header"
    "extract_list - child returned non-zero status: 1"

  • Use the 'setdisk' command in amrecover to specify the exact file on the virtual tape that you want to use, e.g. if I am recovering files from virtual tape 03 to device 'hda1' on host name 'atlas':

    "settape tapeserver:/home/amanda/tape03/data/00004.atlas.hda1.0"

    You will have to check the virtual tape for the exact filename to use.

    There may be a more 'proper' way to do this, but it works...
