I have a question about the name of the log file generated by
amdump. So the format is log.date.number, where number starts at 0.
If I run two amdumps in one day, would log.date.0 be the log file
for the first amdump to start, or the first amdump to finish?

Amdump will mail you a report if properly configured, why not use that
one?
You took the words right out of my mouth :-)
But if you want to do something else with the log file, like feeding
it to amtoc, then you do need to know which log file is the good one.
My cron executes following script each night. It runs amtoc on the
right logfile, and ejects from my chg-multi drives with 2 tapes the
tapes that were written. (change the pathnames in the script!)
