Sorry, difficult to read, everything is line wrapped when I view it. What is the "reserve" setting in amanda.conf ? Are no DLEs being selected because they are too big to store ?
Ok, this is the cron amdump report ? That is good, it tells me that the amanda user login is valid, else you wouldn't get a report and cron's log would have an error. Don't laugh, I've had such account problems, cron fails and interactive runs succeed because I'd # su to the amanda user from root. That is not your problem. (one down) I still wish I had a readable and full report though, mine have a couple of additional sections. What to the logs in /tmp/amanda tell you ?
