This problem goes away if I specify a much lower value for
the 'use' parameter on the holdingdisk. The original
value specified was 30Gb. This would be more than enough
space for the backup (approximately 2.5Gb). If I switch
this value to 200Mb the backup works.
If I use amstatus to watch the dump as it proceeds, it
appears that the entire dump is being written to the
holding disk. The dump is apparently dying when trying
to move the file to the tape.
Any suggestions as to why this behaves this way?

Subject: driver: dumper0 died while dumping
I am getting 'dumper died' and 'dumper messed up' error messages during
the dump. Part of my dump completes normalls (i.e. /home/usr/appl),
however, the run fails for the /home/usr/people directory.
Running RedHat Linux w/ Amanda v2.4.2
Any ideas why this fails?
Thanks in advance,
David
