For some reason, sda10 failed to send the dumps:

Then, for some also unknown reason, AMANDA did not send you a report,
meaning that she didn't finish (properly). This left some files (e.g.
the file "log") in the logdir directory.

The next time amdump ran, found the "log" file and refused to run.
Solution: Run amcleanup _and_ investigate why sda10 failed to send the
results.
I consider this a rather normal situation: clients go down and
connections are lost from time to time and this happens mostly on
weekends, when they run unattended and we need some rest (Murphy's law
;-) ).
