Can you break up the stuff into subdirectories, or
files that are less than 1 tape?
i.e.
/bigparition might be 1 TB
but you might have:
filea 1 tape
fileb 1 tape
filec 1 tape
etc etc
As long as you can, you should be able to use tar with
amanda, exclude certain files, and backup the ones
the real
question is if amanda opens another connection or does
everything as part of the same connection.

Some OSs like AIX can span tapes using their version
of tar by manually asking to mount another volume... I
am not sure if you need to do this on a regular basis

If one time deal and you have the avail disk space use

I believe it has to be on for the dumptype you are
using in disklist. In amanda.conf for that dumptype
index yes must be set. You can set it in the global
section and then put the word global in the others i
believe.

You skipped a step. You have
skip=1 | tar xvf -
on it.
dd seems to have problems with some scsi-tapes and the skip option.
