runspercycle needs to be 1 to do what you want.

I have been trying to make an archival tape configuration for some time
now. I have tried numerous suggestions, but nothing seems to be
effective in stopping Amanda from doing incremental backups. I am using
Amanda 2.4.3b4.
The point of this configuration is to run once every 4 weeks and always
do a full backup to tape. There are two tapes in the rotation and one is
aways off-site.
My amanda.conf:
dumpcycle 0
runspercycle 2
tapecycle 2 tapes
define dumptype comp-root-full {
record no
index yes
comment "Root partitions with compression"
compress client fast
priority low
skip-incr yes
}
define dumptype comp-user-full {
record no
index yes
comment "Non-root partitions on reasonably fast machines"
compress client fast
priority medium
skip-incr yes
}
define dumptype comp-user-full-gnutar {
record no
index yes
program "GNUTAR"
comment "user partitions dumped with tar and compression"
compress server fast
maxdumps 4
exclude "./RECYCLER"
skip-incr yes
}
My disklist:
server02.ct sda1 comp-root-full
1
server02.ct sda2 comp-user-full
1
server02.ct sdd1 comp-user-full
2
server02.ct //SERVER01/BACKUP-C
comp-user-full-gnutar
server02.ct //SERVER01/BACKUP-E
comp-user-full-gnutar
If you reply to this, please reply to me directly in addition to the
list, as I am no longer subscribed.
Thanks,
