amrecover require a level 0 to still exist to works.
You have no level 0 dump of the disk (according to amadmin), it is very
dangerous, it is impossible for amanda to restore the complete disk.
I'm surprised amrecover show you the level 2 dump that are on holding
disk, it should not.

Is your holding disk sufficiently large?
Yes. 260 Gigs to hold about 240 Gigs of backup in 2 pieces (100+140)
Have you changed the "reserve" for incrementa

For amanda, it is thought of as a "maximum time" between level 0's.
But again, basically dumpcycle is nominally the maximum time
between level 0 dumps of a DLE. You can set it globally and
on a DLE by DLE basis.

I need a brief clarification on what the dumpcycle is and how it involves

Do 'amadmin find' list the dump you want to restore?
What error do you get from amrecover? "no longer accessible" is not
helpful to find the problem.
Which amanda release are you using?
You can try to use amrestore on the server.
