indeed, amstatus shows that a full is being done.

Ah! Good eye! I missed the date and also the fact that there was a
level 1 so indeed the last tried ('partial') full backup was not
considered valid.

Here they come, attached, for the initial run and the retry.
What is puzzling me is that the entire image must have first
been dumped on the holding disk on the server, then taped.
Is it possible that I have hit some timeout.
amanda.conf on the server has the following timeouts:
ctimeout 360
dtimeout 12960
etimeout 12960
Notice that the first sendbackup on the client failed after 37676s
while the retry did only after 5397s...
thanks for the time,
