I have the following dumptype defined:

define dumptype global {
    comment "Global definitions"
    index yes
}

define dumptype always-full {
    global
    comment "Full dump of this filesystem always"
    program "GNUTAR"
    compress none
    priority high
    dumpcycle 0
}

Then in the disklist I have entries like:

chena /db/nt-backups/bering {
        always-full
        exclude "Changer.cfg"
}

However, lately I keep seeing entries like this in the emails:

chena:/db/nt-backups/bering      1 [dumps way too big, must skip incremental 
dumps]

Now, if I am requesting always full, I should never see an incremental. Right?  
Secondly what does the message mean?  The file sizes are no larger than 
usual.  The particuar one above is only about 5.3G.  Also, the amuont of data 
written to tape is consistent with the backup being done sucessfully.

I am using amanda version 2.4.3b2
