First make sure there is something to flush.  Are there actually
files in your holdingdisk or are you running it because of a
report that says 'warning, some files may be left on holdingdisk'?
The warning just means there is a possibilty of something to flush,
not that there definately is.
   Also, make sure that whatever is in your holdingdisk belongs to
the config you're trying to amflush.
   I would guess there's something in your debug directory as well
(I think /tmp/amanda is the default), but I've never had occasion to
look there after an amflush.

Related question for others on the group:  why does amanda mark a
tape as being used even when nothing is written to it?  Shouldn't
the update to the tapelist be done only after something was written?
