Dustin,

The job on the server completes, the amandad on the client
does not terminate, causing the 'dump' failures following 
days on the particular client.

There is no apparent ill effect on the server (nor does the issue
on this client seem to affect other clients, but one wouldn't expect
that type of cross interaction).
