Below is the output of amstatus. It struck me as a bit odd that the backup 
wasn't finished yet since it normally only takes 3 hours, and starts at 3:00 
AM. As such it's usually done once I get in.

It's not done. The part that caught my attention is big-kahuna:/db -- is that 
number supposed to be negative, or am I just reading it wrong?
