For the failed DLE, post the output of:
 - amadmin <config> disklist <host> <disk>
 - amadmin <config> find <host> <disk>

Tell me the day you forced the full.
For every day, tell me what level you expected.

Sorry, i forgot one thing: i've already forced on Friday all DLE to do a full, but it was the same problem the week after.

They are not due for a full dump, why do you think they should do one?
With your config, they will do a full at every 7 days.

These DLE are done Monday, the will continue to be done Monday, that's your config.

You must force them to the next full on Friday with (amadmin <config> force serv1).

Every time a DLE will not get it's full on Friday you will get the same problem. It's better to force all DLE to do a full.

The Friday, before amdump, you should run: amadmin <config> force \*

Hi list,

I've set 0 to the maxpromoteday parameter but i've got 2 (sometimes 3) of my 53 DLE which promote the full dump one day after all the others. I have a dumpcycle of 7 days and a runspercycle of 5 (the full dump is normally made on friday but for theses 2 DLE, it's made on monday).

No problem of space with the size of the tape.

I can find this in the amdump log:

pondering serv1:/work/org1... next_level0 3 last_level 2 (not due for a full dump, picking

an incr level)
  pick: size 3759920 level 2 days 2 (thresh 40960K, 1 days)
  pick: next size 2308650... BUMPED

curr level 3 nsize 2308650 csize 1245984 total size 24078802 total_lev0 21969752 balanced-lev0size 15457024

Where the others DLE  are due for level 0:

pondering serv1:/work/org2... next_level0 0 last_level 2 (due for level 0) (picking inclevel for degraded mode) pick: size 79670 level 2 days 3 (thresh 40960K, 1 days)

pick: next size 29480... BUMPED


Any hint would be appreciated
