We are running the amanda client as amanda:disk, we are able to successfully

From and client machine's /tmp/amanda files it looks like the dump is starting
but the debug file is incomplete.
I will include the relevant sections of the amanda run output as well
as the client's sendmbackup.<timestamp> file.
I'm not sure of what is happening, it looks sort of like the server is
not waiting for the dump to complete and that has never been a problem
on any of my other systems.

First make sure dtimeout is sufficiently large. (Could it be around
4800 seconds perhaps?)
Then, also make sure dump itself doesn't crash when running it by
hand with output to /dev/null (if yes, I suspect a filesystem
inconsistency).
