I was checking my amanda reports, and found out most of them the "Run
Time" is less than "Dump Time", which means "inparallel" is working.
But some of them the "Dump Time" appears less then "Run Time", is this
right? When could this happen?
The "Run Time" includes the "Estimate Time".
In the report below the real dumps start 8 minutes later.
An obvious way to get "Dump Time" < "Run Time" is when there is only
one DLE in the disklist. In this case there is no parallelism at all.
It could also be that most dumps are very small (total less than
estimate time), and there is one large dump (bypassing holdingdisk,
or where writing to tape is still less than the estimate phase).
Thanks in advance for your time and advise!

and i'd like to know what does run time value represente ?
Is someone can give me this information ?
The run time is the wall clock time, from the time amanda was
started, until it finished. 2 hours, and 27 minutes in the case above.
If amanda started at one minute past midnight, it finished at 2:28
in the morning.
The first 8 minutes of this period were used to do the estimate phase.
If all the dumps were run sequentially one after another, it would have
taken 3 hours 59 minutes, (3 hours 38 minutes for the full dumps plus
21 minutes for the incremental dumps).
