Jon,

The only use related variables specified in my amanda.conf are the
following:

netusage  8192 Kbps


holdingdisk hd1 {
    comment "main holding disk"
    directory "/holding/dumps/"       # where the holding disk is
    use -1 Mb           # how much space can we use on it
                        # a non-positive value uses all space but that value

    chunksize 1Gb       # size of chunk if you want big dump to be
                        # dumped on multiple files on holding disks
    }


define interface local {
    comment "a local disk"
    use 20480 kbps
}

define interface alt0 {
    comment "Gigabit interface"
    use 20480 kbps
}



I couldn't find anything that specified a 4096GB reservation size.

What is your "use" value set to in amanda.conf?  4096 GB?
