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".
