HDD02 is full as can be, even when I started plotman interactive: the disk already was full! Yet it started plotting lots of new plots to it...

# Archival configuration.  Optional; if you do not wish to run the
# archiving operation, comment this section out.  Almost everyone
# should be using the archival feature.  It is meant to distribute
# plots among multiple disks filling them all.  This can be done both
# to local and to remote disks.
#
# As of v0.4, archiving commands are highly configurable.  The basic
# configuration consists of a script for checking available disk space
# and another for actually transferring plots.  Each can be specified
# as either a path to an existing script or inline script contents.
# It is expected that most people will use existing recipes and will
# adjust them by specifying environment variables that will set their
# system specific values.  These can be provided to the scripts via
# the `env` key.  plotman will additionally provide `source` and
# `destination` environment variables to the transfer script so it
# knows the specifically selected items to process.  plotman also needs
# to be able to generally detect if a transfer process is already
# running.  To be able to identify externally launched transfers, the
# process name and an argument prefix to match must be provided.  Note
# that variable substitution of environment variables including those
# specified in the env key can be used in both process name and process
# argument prefix elements but that they use the python substitution
# format.
#
# Complete example: https://github.com/ericaltendorf/plotman/wiki/Archiving
#archiving:
#  target: local_rsync
#  env:
#    command: rsync
#    site_root: /mnt/farm

# Plotting scheduling parameters
scheduling:

        # Phase major corresponds to the plot phase, phase minor corresponds to
        # the table or table pair in sequence, phase limit corresponds to
        # the number of plots allowed before [phase major : phase minor].
        # e.g, with default settings, a new plot will start only when your plot
        # reaches phase [2 : 1] on your temp drive. This setting takes precidence
        # over global_stagger_m

dst is not meant to be used as the final resting place for plots unless you are going to manage these situations yourself. It is meant as a buffer. Archiving is used to distribute plots to fill disks.
