Global has no active settings at all at present.

define dumptype global {
    comment "Global definitions"
    # This is quite useful for setting global parameters, so you don't have
    # to type them everywhere.  All dumptype definitions in this sample file
    # do include these definitions, either directly or indirectly.
    # There's nothing special about the name `global'; if you create any
    # dumptype that does not contain the word `global' or the name of any
    # other dumptype that contains it, these definitions won't apply.
    # Note that these definitions may be overridden in other
    # dumptypes, if the redefinitions appear *after* the `global'
    # dumptype name.
    # You may want to use this for globally enabling or disabling
    # indexing, recording, etc.  Some examples:
    # index yes
    # record no
    # split_diskbuffer "/raid/amanda"
    # fallback_splitsize 64m
}
