Does amstatus tell you anything interesting?

Have you looked through the debug files, probably in /tmp/amanda,
for any indication of a problem?  (It might be good to rename the
or empty the current /tmp/amanda and rerun amflush.  Otherwise
there could be tons of irrelevant files)

Is there anything to "amcleanup"?

Do your system log files indicate any problems with accessing the
holding disk(s) or tape?
