Also true:
0 16 * * 0-6 backup /usr/sbin/amcheck -m DailySet1

Nothing unusual. I just want to mention that running amcheck myself leads to
following output:
# su backup -c "/usr/sbin/amcheck DailySet1"
Amanda Tape Server Host Check
-----------------------------
Holding disk /tmp: 9156028 KB disk space available, using 9053628 KB
tape_rdlabel: tape open: /dev/nst0: Input/output error
(expecting tape VOL-1 or a new tape)
Server check took 120.633 seconds
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check
--------------------------------
Client check: 2 hosts checked in 0.098 seconds, 0 problems found
(brought to you by Amanda 2.5.0p2)
In 2.4.x version of amcheck, I got "1 problems found" if I forgot to put
in the right tape and ran amcheck on the command line. And the server check
was considerably faster to detect a missing tape, say 30 to 40 secs.

Yes. I attached a stripped down version of my amanda.conf.

As usual, just reply if you need further information.
Best regards,
