amdevcheck - Validate an Amanda device and volume.
 
==SYNOPSIS==
 
amdevcheck config [device name] [-o configoption]...
 
==DESCRIPTION==
 
Amdevcheck provides a way to check that a particular Amanda device is accessible, whether or not it contains a volume, and whether or not that volume is labeled. Some devices can’t distinguish between all of these cases; a missing volume and an unlabeled volume might generate the same error code, for example. In those cases, this tool reports all possible causes of the error.
 
See the [[amanda]](8) man page for more details about Amanda. See the OUTPUT DRIVERS section of [[amanda]](8) for more information on the Amanda output drivers.
 
==OPTIONS==
 
; config : Amanda configuration to use. Note that amdevcheck ignores any tape changer configuration.
 
; device : Amanda device to use. This option overrides any tapedev configuration specified in the configuration file.
 
; -o '''clientconfigoption''' : See the "[[amanda#CONFIGURATION_OVERRIDE|CONFIGURATION OVERRIDE]]" section in [[amanda]](8).
