The new 'amadmin holding list' command gives that sort of result. If
you run, e.g.,
amadmin DailySet1 holding list -l
It will give you a detailed listing; an example from my development box:

Hi, Stefan,
In your HOWTO, you have the following configuration for tapedev:
tapedev "file:/amandatapes/daily"
Should that be file:// ?

I can change that parameter value, however, in the 'HOWTO'
I was following, it tells me to comment out that specific

The tape drive is OK. Some tests:

Compression off.

Jeanna,

Hi, Jeanna,
The setting I mentioned, pointing tapedev at the "slots" directory on
disk, is what I use for writing to virtual tapes, i.e. writing to disk.
Did you notice that the HOWTO you are using is dated Nov 2001? A lot has
changed since then. Try the HOWTO in the wiki at:

Hi,
I ran into a similar message :
"

"/usr/lib/amanda/chg-disk"

I found the answer on the forums:

In your amanda.conf, you need to define:
tapedev "file://path/to/your/slots"

Why run amdump if you don't want new dump? Why not use amflush?
If the answer is: Because amdump only dump a few dle.
Then you should set the "reserve" to a value below 100.
With reserve==100, amdump record full dump only once they are put on
tape, that's why it retry it.
With reserve < 100, a

Could we have (amanda.conf-parameter-switchable) informations about the
holdingdisk-content in the amanda-reports?
For example:
Instead of:
"Some dumps may have been left in the holding disk.
Run amflush again to flush them to tape."
there could be:
