I would suggest just forcing a full dump for the next run.  That forgets
most previous information:

  amadmin <CONFIG> force <HOST> <DISK>

Or you could do let Amanda do a little less work and tell it to be sure
not to bump to the next dump level:

  amadmin <CONFIG> force-no-bump <HOST> <DISK>

That will cause it to repeat the same level it did last time (or it
might jump back to a full dump, which is OK, too).
