When I use callVarBam.py with the default dcov option at 250, I get variants called with depth of 500 and higher.

Is this correct? if so, can someone explain to me what dcov actually does?

"--dcov" only limits the number of reads that are with the same starting position. So the coverage of a position is OK to go beyond --dcov.
