amstatus uses the most recent amdump logfile (amdump.1) if you haven't
specified a particular logfile (with the --file argument) and there isn't a
current logfile (amdump).  There's nothing for you to do here; amstatus is
just showing you the status as of the time you killed it.  A new amdump
logfile will be created during the next run of amdump and you'll be able to
see the new status then.
