Hi there - 

I'm running amanda2.4.2p2 on a RH8.0 box - the client is a RH7.2 box
also running amanda2.4.2p2.

The client has two disks, the first disk is partitioned in a standard
way - the second disk only has one partition /docs; and docs is the only
thing I want to back up.

/dev/hda3              1004052     51352    901696   6% /var


My disklist entry looks like this:

client.unterlaw.com /docs user-tar

amcheck runs fine, detects no problems,
but the dump didn't run...
client.u /docs lev 0 FAILED [can't switch to incremental dump]

Why does amanda think I'm running an incremental dump on a this
partition? Also - this dump went to holding disk due to a tape
error...is it just saying that it couldn't drop this to a level 1?
