.SH "NAME"
amverify - check an Amanda tape for errors
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP 9
\fBamverify\fR \fIconfig\fR [\fIslot\fR\ [\fIruntapes\fR]]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBAmverify\fR
reads an Amanda format tape and makes sure each backup image can be processed by
\fBamrestore\fR
and, if possible, the appropriate restore program (e\.g\.
\fBtar\fR)\.
.PP
\fBAmverify\fR
runs
\fBamrestore\fR
on each file of the tape and pipes the output to a restore program (if available) with an option to create a catalogue of the backup\. The catalogue itself is discarded\. Only the success or failure of the operation itself is reported\.
.PP
If the backup image cannot be processed by the restore program, e\.g\. if it was written on a different operating system, the image is sent through
\fBdd\fR
to /dev/null\. This still determines if the tape is readable, but does not do any internal consistency check on the image\.
.PP
If
\fIconfig\fR
is set up to use a tape changer, the
\fIslot\fR
argument may be used to choose the first tape to process\. Otherwise, the
\fBcurrent\fR
slot is used\.
.PP
The
\fBruntapes\fR
configuration parameter determines how many tapes are processed unless it is specified on the command line\.
.PP
See the
\fBamanda\fR(8)
man page for more details about Amanda\.
