Re: Amrecover hangs after restore

An aside:    One thing you might do first is to save the few backups that are still good.
If there are still some.   There were, a few messages ago.

If there are 5 still good,  then  set your tapenum  to 60-5=55
and quickly do
   amadmin  <config>   no-reuse   tapename
for all the still-good backups.
