1. what's the meaning of "Some dumps may have been left in the holding

do I have to call amcleanup/amflush (which?) to check them out to
tape?
amflush, not amcleanup.
amflush is for flushing dumps from holding disk to tape, updating
databases as it goes. Jon already told you about `autoflush' in newer
amanda releases, which would flush them automatically with tomorrow's dump.
amcleanup is for housekeeping after a crash. During dumping, amanda
writes into files with a .tmp extension on your holding disk. amcleanup
deletes those, prepares index files, and sends the amreport mail. It
doesn't touch existing, completed dumps on your holding disk.
