There is one possible problem: 
  - amanda did a level 1 backup yesterday
  - amanda did a level 2 backup today
  - if you remove yesterday level 1 from holding disk you will not
    be able to recover the filesystem at the state of today.

If you remove a dump from holding disk, make sure that you have
a backup at same level or lower the following day.
