A limitation of amanda is the full dump of every entry in your disklist
file must be smaller than a single tape.

This is a new entry (first dump) and thus a full dump must be done.

Amanda believes the entry to be too big to fit a single tape.

Is it?  If not probably some config file(s) entry is wrong.
