Make sure your holding disk names include
the configuration name in the path.

I've been using "/u/dumps/amanda" and
"/w/dumps/amanda".  I'm going to add "Daily"
and "Archive" to the end of the paths.

I had an Archive configuration run longer
than anticipated.  The amcheck for the Daily
configuration ran during taping the last
Archive file system causing it to abort
and be left on the holding disk.

The Daily backup did not tape as no Daily
tapes were in the cartridge.  It too was
left on the holding disk.

Although they were created using different
configurations, different backup programs
(ufsdump and gtar), and on different dates
both dumps flushed to tape with amflush Daily.

Post-mortem reading of the amflush man page
shows this is expected behavior :(
