Problem

You are notified (or not notified) by amanda of a failure involving amdump or amflush (or ?) to this effect:

taper: critical (fatal): Can't locate auto/Amanda/Device/Device/swig_volume.al in @INC...

Explanation

This is most likely due to the tape Amanda was trying to use being unlabeled although Amanda somehow had the idea it was/should be labeled.

Solution

Use amlabel(8) to label the tape or setup autolabel in your amanda.conf(5) file.

Variations of This Problem

  • amflush fails with 'taper: FATAL Can't locate auto/Amanda/De [1]
