I would expect another errormessage here: "No index records for host: %s. Have you enabled indexing?"

Is the above really the complete errormessage?
What Amanda version are you running?

You see above that "index yes" is commented out. Remove the comments or add "index yes" to the always-full dumptype. You could have found this, by executing the command:

amadmin normal disklist localhost | grep index

(I believe this command does not exist in versions older
than amanda 2.4.2 .)

In disklist you call your host "localhost" so you should call
it "localhost" everywhere.  (And that's just the reason to avoid
"localhost", because "localhost" on another host points to a different
computer - confusion garuanteed!)
