I'm running beta1. Thanks for the patch I'll check if it helps. 

After this error I can't start new dumps now:

main problem is just we cannot split this data. I looking for flexible and 
bullet proof backup system and amanda seems to be such backup system. Now I 
have to 10Tb to back up every week but in 3 months I will have additional 2Tb 
every 6 days.  

we are moving to disk to disk backup but before we get there we need reliable 
backup. But even after migraton still we need to take level0 to tapes and some 
incremental. Paranoid sounds good specially when you have medical and research 
data.
