This is covered in the man page:
Default: 300 seconds. Amount of time per disk on a
given client that the planner step of amdump will wait
to get the dump size estimates. For instance, with the
default of 300 seconds and four disks on client A,
planner will wait up to 20 minutes for that machine. A
negative value will be interpreted as a total amount of
time, instead of a per-disk value.
Note that, when positive, it is per disk. When negative, it is per
host (and the man page needs a minor tweak to make that point).
