The call to amcleanup is unnecessary. From the amcleanup manpage:
DESCRIPTION
Amcleanup generates the Amanda Mail Report and updates the
Amanda databases after a system failure on a tape server
host. This cleanup process is normally done automatically
as part of the amdump program, but if amdump cannot com-
plete for some reason (usually because of a tape server
host crash), amcleanup must be run some time later (usu-
ally during system boot).
