Oh, yes, my mistake again. I am only considering per job volume labeling for file based storage. For tapes this does not make sense of course. Using a Run Before directive, I could mark a mounted volume used and this would trigger a new volume to be labeled, right? If a job writes to a volume this is already covered by max volume jobs =1. So far this has worked fine, with the exception of failed jobs. > > You can also have a few pools and your volume labels without > client/date/job information.

In this situation I figure it would be very useful to find the last backups of the catalog and the bacula server to feed them to bscan. With large volumes bscan will sit there for a long time, scanning all volumes.
