You can do it in disklist, but it would look like this:

servername /var {
     root-tar
     exclude "./holding" }

1) The dumptype is defined just like in amanda.conf.  That is, the first 
   entry is like a #INCLUDE, and the following entries all modify that.  
   Thus why root-tar is inside the {}s.

2) All includes and excludes are relative to the diskdevice you specify.
