simple query

OK...I'm still reading as much documentation as I can find before I
really decide I'm ready to tackle Amanda...One thing that keeps cropping
up is that if Amanda hits the end of tape during a dump, it jumps to the
next tape and starts over. This brings up the situation where the dump
itself is greater than an empty tape. Let's say it crops up (worse
case) at the beginning of a run...wouldn't this seem to be antithetical
to running a backup? If followed to it's logical conclusion, you could
potentially run through your entire tapeset without backing anything up,
even though the other backups following the "runaway backup" might
happily fit on the tapes. Or am I missing something? I realize this
may not be a critical problem (just readjust your disklists the next
day) but does seem possible (not to mention a nuisance).
