+amcleanup \14 run the AMANDA cleanup process after a failure
+
+Synopsis
+
+amcleanup config
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+Amcleanup generates the AMANDA Mail Report and updates the AMANDA databases
+after a system failure on a tape server host. This cleanup process is normally
+done automatically as part of the amdump program, but if amdump cannot complete
+for some reason (usually because of a tape server host crash), amcleanup must
+be run some time later (usually during system boot).
+See the amanda(8) man page for more details about AMANDA.
+
+EXAMPLES
+
+This example runs the AMANDA cleanup process by hand after a failure.
+
+  % amcleanup daily
+
+Putting the following line in a system boot script (e.g. /etc/rc.local) runs
+the AMANDA cleanup process as part of the reboot, eliminating the need to run
+it by hand.
+
+  /usr/local/sbin/amcleanup daily
+
+If nothing needs to be done, amcleanup exits normally with the message:
+
+  amcleanup: no unprocessed logfile to clean up.
