I don't have enough information.  Look at a corresponding amdump.<nn>
file on the server (in the amanda.conf directory).  Find the line that
looks like this:

  DELAYING DUMPS IF NEEDED, total_size 22483420, tape length 55296000 mark 2000
    delay: Total size now 22483420.
    
What do they say for your system?
