It looks like amanda tries to squeeze exactly 1 0 dump for each filesystem
in a dumpcycle.

This is bad
(just imagine a diskcrash just as the disk is being 0dumped to the tape
that had the last 0dump on it).

Is there any way to get amanda to do 2 0dumps per filesystem in each
dumpcycle (apart form specifying a dumpcycle of N/2 days ) ?

If I have a 10 day dumpcycle,
(T1 .. T10) (and a few spare tapes T11 ..
and set my dumpcycle to 5,
and at day 6 I can reuse T1 which is not what I want.
It should only allow me to use T6 (or T11 ... or a new tape or ..)

Or am I misunderstanding things here ?



Kind regards,
