It should have been.  You might set it explicitly just to be sure.

You might also check the ulimit values (and maybe the disk quota) for your
Amanda user to make sure you're not banging into that kind of problem.

The "chunksize" and "use" values are not related, and "chunksize"
certainly does not have to be smaller than "use".  The "use" value
determines how much total space Amanda has to work with in the holding
disk.  The "chunksize" value tells it how to split apart a single image.
