Hello folks,

Is there a way to get Amanda to balance automatically the full dumps for a 
given configuration?

I'm using version 3.1.3 and here's a 'amadmin config balance' output:

due-date  #fs    orig kB     out kB   balance

TOTAL      311 1569073720 1569073720 112076694
DISTINCT    51 1052193330 1052193330
  (estimated 14 runs per dumpcycle)
 (20 filesystems overdue. The most being overdue 1 day.)

Here's the pertinent section of my 'amanda.conf':

inparallel 10
netusage  100 mbps
maxdumps 2

dumpcycle 2 weeks
runspercycle 14 
tapecycle 16 tapes

bumpsize 20 Mb
bumpdays 1
bumpmult 4


I suppose that I could manually force a full dump on days were none or not many 
full dumps are scheduled...  But I thought that I'd ask the question if there 
was a way of getting amanda do that automatically.

Thanks!
