Both holding disks are set to use a chunksize of 2000 Mb? You didn't
accidentally do one and not the other, did you? If you look at the amdump
file it will tell you which holding disk was being used. Look in there
and see how big the files are.
This error message comes from dumper which runs on the server. What
OS are you running there?
It comes from error EFBIG, so you can look that up in "man write".
On the systems I have access to, in addition to the 2 GByte problem that
may be involved, it can also mean the per file resource limit for the
(Amanda) user has been exceeded. So you may need to play with ulimit,
or however that's done on your OS.
