The first thing I see is that you only have one tape, but a dumpcycle 
of 14 days.  Two things to check.

1) Did you do that test run as root, that won't work.

amanda needs to be configured and built by the user, and most of us 
have a user named amanda that does that.  Then the install itself 
must be done as root, that way all the permissions are correctly set.
Do it any other way and you wind up in permissions purgatory.  Many of 
us use a script to do that configuration and build phase, so that we 
do it exactly the same from version to version, no forgotten options 
or such that way.

2) You need enough tapes in your tapecycle for 
runspercycle*runtapes*(s/b 2 or more here)
>From you conf:
dumpcycle 14 days
tapecycle 1
#runspercycle 4 weeks
runtapes 1

with runspercycle commented out as it is, amanda has no idea what it 
is that you really want it to do.  I believe n that case it will 
default to the dumpcycle, or 14 in this case.  That would then 
presume at least 14 tapes in the tapecycle, and preferably 28 or 
more.  Thats a long dumpcycle, longer than most use by quite a bit.

Then you have the tapetype set for HARD-DISK, but then define it as:

define tapetype HARD-DISK{
 comment "Backup en Disco-Duro"
 length 10 mbytes #Simula el final de la cinta en disco duro
}

So, generally speaking, this has no chance of working when you give it 
only 10 megabytes of room to do whats probably a multi-gigabyte 
system, but I've not looked at your disklist either as this is 
sufficient to almost guarantee a failure.
