I'm not familiar with the various "strategy" and other related options, but can you set a strategy that always does a "no-full" or "only-incremental" AND can also be forced with amadmin to do full dumps on demand? If yes, perhaps you can use just a single configuration. The incremental only strategy would only cause incrementals daily except the one following your forced "amadmin full" Then dump that "file tape" to real tape. -- Jon H.
