If talking about amanda's planning, it "shouldn't" happen. I'm pretty sure that amanda does at most, estimates of three dump levels; level 0, the last dump level, and the last level +1. When done manually, the label tags are pretty arbitrary though. You can do a full dump, then call the next dump an incremental level 9. Its contents will be the same as if you called it a level 1. I've seen suggested "fixed" dump level schedules that bounce around. Some of these are on the dump man pages. For example, from ufsdump the first line of a suggested schedule: Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Week 1: Full 5 5 5 5 3 -- Jon H.
