maxpromoteday

Hello!
I'm trying to avoid the situation where some DLEs get multiple level0
backups during the dumpcycle. This is because I'm running with vtapes
that are somewhat "over-drafting" the actual capacity of the
backup-harddisk.
It seems from the documentation that I should set 'maxpromoteday' to 2,
1 or even 0. That's fine, I'll do that. But I must admit that I don't
quite understand the meaning of maxpromoteday parameter, except that
setting it to smaller number causes Amanda to promote dumps less
aggressively. Can anyone explain it? If I set maxpromoteday to, say, 3,
then how does this '3' actually influence the planner?
