After enabling 'autoflush' in amanda.conf, and starting new amdump, I saw two entries for a backup job that was already on holding disk. One was waiting to be flushed, the other was getting estimates. (I had to kill the job since I didn't want to run the 500GB backup again!). With autoflush enabled, will Amanda attempt to run another backup of the DLE that needs to be flushed?
In my experience, yes. 'Autoflush' just means that as part of the amdump run, Amanda also tries to flush the contents of holding disk to tape. If an earlier dump of a particular DLE is on the holding disk and new amdump is run, that doesn't mean that this particular DLE doesn't get dumped. Why should it? Do you not want to have the up-to date backup of this DLE? At least on holding disk?
I am currently running 2.5.1p2.
