on Mon-Thu,  in your cronjob
       amdump configname   node1  node2     node4
or
      amdump configname    node1  node2   node3   DLE2  DLE3  node4

and only on Friday can you do a simple
     amdump configname
with no nodes or DLEs after it.

If anybody has a better idea, than let this serve as  “BUMP”  for the question.
