12 Amcleanup generates the Amanda Mail Report and updates the Amanda
13 databases after a system failure on a tape server host. This cleanup
14 process is normally done automatically as part of the amdump program,
15 but if amdump cannot complete for some reason (usually because of a
16 tape server host crash), amcleanup must be run some time later (usually
17 during system boot).
18
19 The amcleanupdisk program is run with the same [-r] and [-v] options.
