I think what he's asking for is a way to find out what level dump will be
done during the next run of amanda for a particular host/disk. 

Unfortunately the answer is you can't. amadmin can tell you what level was
done on the last run (amadmin Config info host disk), and it can tell you
when the next level 0 is due (amadmin Config due host disk). So, you can
guess based on that information what the next run might be, however amanda
is free at any time to move a level 0 forward in time if it will help
balance the amount of dumps.

Hope that explains it...
