Read that as "late" as in my payment is late by 8 days because I sent it in a week after the "due date". What amanda is refering to is not bills but level 0 backups. If a DLE gets a level 0 dump today, it is "due" for another level 0 in "dumpcycle number of days". So in the original example, one DLE was "due for a level 0" 8 days ago. Thus it is overdue 8 days. The other DLE is due for a level 0 in 3 days, so as long as a level 0 is done for that DLE in the next 3 days, it will meet the dumpcycle requirement and not become overdue. -- Jon H.
