Is your 'holding delete' the same as this version's 'delete'? I'm nervous about something 
that just says, "Delete from database."
NO, it's not the same.

You should move the holding files on another directory
force a full dump of the disk: amadmin $conf force $host $disk
run the dump
If the full succeed, you can remove the copy of the holding files.

3). Is there any way to destroy what's on my holdingdisk now for the tobaccodev 
server, so that amanda will again try to backup at the level it tried before? 
I've now set the dumptype to use server compression for this host, so I may get 
a result that will fit on the tape.

  amadmin $conf holding delete $host [ $disk [ .. ] ]
