thanks again :-)
here my updated config : inparallel 8 netusage 30000 maxdumps 10
dumporder TTTTTTTT
I read about dump at : http://dump.sourceforge.net/isdumpdeprecated.html so I'll try it again.
last question ... for new ;-), what do you mean by : "set the correct "splindle" for each DLE"
thanks again

We have performance problem with a 47 GB partition (on the backup server).

50 dumpers!! and amplot shows only a few active. Probably overkill.
netusage 30000 maxdumps 5
So you do allow 5 dumps on the same host? Only do this when having set the correct "splindle" for each DLE, otherwise you're garuanteed to step on your toes by trashing the disk, resulting in an even slower estimate/backup.
holdingdisk hd1 {
comment "main holding disk"
directory "/amanda/daily"
use -50 Mb
chunksize 4 Gb
(...)
}
Can force the backup order so this partition is the first one to be backup ?
In amanda.conf add:
dumperorder "T..." # fill the dots with other letters, as many # as you have "inparallel" (best set them to a reasonablenumber like 8) # See man page for possible letters to choose # I have: "TTTTTTTT" in my config
