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?
I guess the "reserve" parameter is configured to 100 (the default)
or only so much that the 6.2 Gbyte full dump does not fit.
The reserve parameter indicates how much to reserve to full dumps
on holdingdisk when dumping in degraded mode.
You had a tape error, and amanda decides to degrade some or all
full dumps to incrementals and continue with dumps to holdingdisk.
But, because (from the context) it seems it never did a full dump,
amanda can't switch to incremental, because there is no previous
full dump to base the increments on.
Was this what happened?
