One of my client hosts has a drive that is larger than my holding disk
-- drive is 18G, holdingdisk is only 4G. No, I can't swap them, and
no, I'd rather not buy a bigger disk right now.

I would have thought that Amanda would dump the client to the
holdingdisk in 1G chunks (isn't that what the "chunksize" directive is
for?), as it does the other clients, and then gradually flush those to
tape, in order to keep the drive streaming. But it's not; it uses the
holdingdisk for the other clients, and dumps straight to tape with the
large one.

Is there any way around this behavior?

(system information, FWIW:
NetBSD 1.5.2/sparc
amanda-2.4.2p2
DLT2000XT
)
