Oops, I just read on amanda.conf:

autoflush no #
# if autoflush is set to yes, then amdump will schedule all dump on
# holding disks to be flush to tape during the run.

I misunderstood your mails, sorry, I'll set this to "yes" and wait for
the next normal dump. Tomorrow let's see the results.

Cheers,

Rodrigo
