I have just recently changed tape drives, so I was starting over again in my configuration, in essence. I did indeed force run amdump twice the same day since a level 0 of everything didn't fit on one tape and I wanted a full level 0 of everything on the new drive as soon as possible. Of course, nothing much went on from incrementals of the partitions/disks which had just had a full backup.
