Ahh, that's a good idea.

And with 2.4.2, you can build dumptypes "on the fly" in the disklist,
so it could be done like this without messing with amanda.conf:

  client.my.domain  /first/disk         a-normal-dumptype
  client.my.domain  /second/disk        {
    the-normal-dumptype
    strategy skip
  }
  client.my.domain  /third/disk         another-normal-dumptype

(I think -- I didn't test it).

"strategy skip" is identical to "ignore yes", but as I understand it,
"strategy" is the "way of the future".
