But e.g. last month, amanda (3.3.0) filled 5 tapes (runtapes was set
to 5) and put the rest into the holdingdisk, so I could flush it later:

Amanda dumped all with level 0 and what could not put to tape, was
left in the holdingdisk.
The estimate size was probably below the tape space, now it is above the
tape space.
