I think you need to either change your dumporder so that your largest DLE (this
failing one) goes first so it can all be written on the first tape, increase
your
holdingdisk space so that it will fit, or split this DLE into pieces that will
fit
on your holdingdisk.
Currently, it is dumping directly to tape since it is larger than your
holdingdisk
but it is hitting EOT. If it were on the holdingdisk, Amanda could just start
over
on the next tape, but since it is dumping directly to tape it can't, and just
fails
that DLE. I don't think Amanda has a way to tell the client to abort the
currently
running dump and start over.
