You'll have to be a lot more talkative if you want someone to be able to help.
So far we know you have some kind of nightly backups. They appear to be controlled by a custom script that someone (who?) wrote specifically (?) for your site. Since you call it a menu, it must be some sort of web page or gui thing, and DBA implies it is dumping some kind of database. Don't know what kind, what OS, etc. Flesh that out a bit for us, and let us know something about the script, who wrote it, and how it works. Then maybe someone can offer something more useful than just, "whoever wrote the script needs to include some reporting via email in it."

I'm new in this forum. I need to ask a few question.
I would like to know if it is possible to use dump and tar command for backup in one tape.
If it is possible, how do I restore it back?

SCRIPT-EMAIL(8) System Administration Commands SCRIPT-EMAIL(8)
NAME
script-email - Amanda script to send email notifications
DESCRIPTION
script-email is an Amanda script implementing the Script API. It should not be run by users directly. It sends a notification email to the
addresses specified in the MAILTO property.
PROPERTIES
This section lists the properties that control script-email's functionality. See amanda-scripts(7) for information on the Script API,
script configuration.
MAILTO
List of email addresses that will receive an email on command execution. It is a multi-valued property:
property "MAILTO" "amanda@domain.com" "sysadmin@domain.com" "amandauser@domain.com"
EXAMPLE
In this example, script-email is scheduled to be run before the DLE, on the server. The unqualified email address amanda will be passed to
the email system unchanged. The script is then attached to a dumptype, which can then be specified for any DLEs which require
notification.
define script-tool pre-email {
comment "email me before this DLE is backed up"
plugin "script-email"
execute-on pre-dle-backup
execute-where server
property "mailto" "amanda"
}
define dumptype user-tar-email {
user-tar
script "pre-email"
}
