It should be the number of tapes you have in a cycle, AFAIK.

So you want full backups every day, onto a different tape every day?

I'd think the easiest way to set this up would be to set tapecycle to
the number of tapes you have in rotation, or the number of tapes your
changer can hold, and then use the dumptype option "strategy noinc".

Somebody who's been using AMANDA longer can probably correct me
though. ;)
