No doubt this is discussed many times in the list archives.

However, for an example, in a disklist I have three entries for parts
of a single 20G partition mounted at /backup on a host called "palace": 

palace       /backup/B1                 high       -1 local
palace       /backup/B2                 high       -1 local
palace       /backup/home               high       -1 local

dumptype "high" is defined in amanda.conf:

define dumptype high {
    comment "High priority, all sets"
    compress server fast
    index yes
    program "GNUTAR"
    priority high
    exclude list "/etc/amanda/Daily/exclude.gtar"
}
