Have you TOLD AMANDA about the doubled space she can use?
(use-parameter in the holdingdisk-section).

If you use spindle-numbers in your disklist make sure you don`t set
the same for the both DLEs you want to parallelize.

There isnŽt much parallelism going on, as these numbers tell us.

Let us see your disklist and the corresponding dumptypes as well as
your parameter "inparallel", and the holding-disk section(s) for a
start.
