Hi,

As I read it, I realize that I can report the same behaviour. I assume that
this is because of the subtle fix of
http://bugs.bacula.org/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0000227

It looks like bacula now reads all following data on that tape, too - until
it reaches its end:

16-Mar 12:03 ueun33-sd: Forward spacing to file:block 134:0.
nagios-fd: -r--r--r--   1 wwwrun   root      106354 2005-03-14 16:08:00
/tmp/restore/etc/nagios/services.cfg
16-Mar 12:07 ueun33-sd: End of Volume at file 157 on device /dev/nst0,
Volume "L1470010"
16-Mar 12:08 ueun33-sd: RestoreFiles.2005-03-16_12.01.07 Warning: Wrong
Volume mounted on device /dev/nst0: Wanted L1470001 have L1470010 
16-Mar 12:08 ueun33-sd: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded drive 0" command.


This is new behaviour compared to 1.36.1 and perhaps answers the problem of
the very, very long taking restores since .2

I'm using Scotts RPMs on a SuSE 9.2 system.

Thanks
Roland

The above is very interesting information that I was not aware of.

Yes, there is a very subtle bug fix that I made to prevent Bacula from
thinking the tape was truncated after a restored. Perhaps that "fix" is
causing it to read a lot more records than it should, making it *much*
slower.

Can you build Bacula with a patch that I can supply you and test that? It
would be very interesting to try restoring the same file(s) with what you
have now and a patched Bacula.

If you can, please open a bug report, with bugs.bacula.org, copy in a few
EOF messages, and your paragraph above beginning with "I do not understand
...". 
It is much easier to resolve these issues via the bugs database than via
email.

Please attach to the bug report your restore.bsr as restore.bsr.txt.  Its
location is printed just before you answer yes to the restore yes/mod/no
prompt.
