Is there a parameter to make amanda wait with writing to tape until all
the dumps are on the holding list?

I have played with flush-threshold-dumped & flush-threshold-scheduled
... so far no success. The LTO4 starts to stop and go while there are
multiple dumps coming in .. which is to be avoided.

Currently I run 2 Gb-NICs bonded to improve parallelity and throughput
for dumping, this works fine in my tests.

I could do 2 cronjobs, one for

amdump -o tapedev="" ... to only write to the holdingdisk

and a second for

amflush -b ...

but maybe there is a more elegant way?
