While investigating a tape issue (separate thread)
I investigated the "allow-split" parameter of
amanda.conf.  The man page says it defaults to "true"
and my configuration has never set it.

Thinking perhaps the default has changed I tried
setting allow-split several ways and places.  amcheck
always complains "configuration parameter expected".

Also, amgetconf says there is no configuration parameter
called "allow-split".

Does anyone have "allow-split" in their configuration?
If so, how/where?

I do acc grep:
gene@coyote:~$ sudo grep allow /usr/local/etc/amanda/Daily/amanda.conf
maxdumps 1      # allowing one per host makes sense to me
#   skip-full - skip the disk when a level 0 is due, to allow full
backups

define dumptype  global {
...
allow-split true
}

OF COURSE, it a dumptype parameter.   My stupidity.

I've added it, but I suspect it will have no affect
as the default is true.
