Dear Collegues,

I use Bacula  1.36.3 with one usb hard disk which is 400 GB in large. I
have configured Bacula in such way I have 5 archives incremented daily
during whole year. All mondays are stored in one file -Monday, tuesdays
- in Tuesday etc. and are incremented since 1 January. Now they are
about 20GB each. There are also month backups, but they are made once a
two months now (because of the amount of space taken).

Yesterday I had a power failure and just after I forgot to switch on the
drive. Because there was no drive mounted, Bacula changed VolStatus from
"Append" to "Error".

Now I have the following problem: when I try to restore files, the error
volume is ommited, and I cannot restore none of the wednesday's backups.
When I manually set the VolStatus to "Append" I still cannot restore
wednesdays, because size of the volume is zero.


Restore output with missing wednesdays:

What shall I do now? I've considered to use bscan -s against the volume
but I am not sure if it would not damage the Catalog. Besides the
archive is compressed with BZIP9 option and the media is slow, so I
would rather use some hack to get my Catalog in line with real data
stored on disk.

I would really appreciate any help.
