Amanda uses the gnutar option --listed-incrementals" for that.

Both GNUTAR and DUMP support incrementals (although some dump
implementations can only count to 9).

I am reffering to Partial full backup. Where every amdump will backup
a part of backup data. I agree to you that both programms support
incremental backup.
Please clearify me about partial backup.

Thanks in advance.
