The disk was full of old partial dumps from testing of another backup set so i
did not want to flush them to any tapes.
The logs "driver: adding holding disk 0 dir /dumps/ size 1949288448 chunksize
9007199254740896" indicate that it is finding the dump disk with correct size of 2TB
free.
Even if the dump drive was full i should be getting "FAILED [can't dump required
holdingdisk when no holdingdisk space available ]" not MISSING on the DLE.
I even tested with the holding disk disabled and it still says it is missing.
The path is most certainly not missing from the filesystem. I also tried
changing to another file path but still MISSING.
It must be something in the database that got stuck, i will have to parse it
myself and see if i can figure out what.

I normally use amflush to clear the holding disk. Not saying rm doesn't work,
but that will not update the Amanda info database. It might think that space
is still being used.

I take it you did not read what i wrote. The holding disk is already empty
after i 'rm -r':ed it.
But even if i tell amanda to never use the holding disk for the failing DLE
it just stops immediately when trying to run the planner (it normally takes a
few minutes for that DLE). All other DLEs run fine.
