Hello, with about the half of my tapes , bacula doesn't write the full capacity and ends with something like this:
05-May 13:06 backup-sd: Backup.2006-05-05_11.05.00 Error: block.c:552 Write error at 1108:12049 on device /dev/nsa2. ERR=Invalid argument. 05-May 13:06 backup-sd: End of medium on Volume "A00010" Bytes=1,099,510,936,757 Blocks=17,043,520 at 05-May-2006 13:06. Are there any experiences with this behavior? Does it indicates to harware or a batch of corrupt tapes or still software? Any data lost? There are no other hints in /var/log/messages or other files. A second question: I tried to check such tapes with bls and bscan. With bscan I've got the following: ..... 09-May 15:36 bscan: Got EOF at file 98 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" 09-May 15:36 bscan: Got EOF at file 99 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" 09-May 15:36 bscan: Got EOF at file 100 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" 09-May 15:37 bscan: Got EOF at file 101 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" bscan: bscan.c:546 Could not find SessId=13 SessTime=1144758273 for EOS record. 09-May 15:37 bscan: Got EOF at file 102 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" bscan: bscan.c:462 3099377 "errors" ignored before first Start of Session record. bscan: bscan.c:472 SOS_LABEL: Found Job record for JobId: 0 09-May 15:37 bscan: Got EOF at file 103 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" bscan: bscan.c:472 SOS_LABEL: Found Job record for JobId: 0 09-May 15:37 bscan: Got EOF at file 104 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" 09-May 15:38 bscan: Got EOF at file 105 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" 09-May 15:38 bscan: Got EOF at file 106 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" 09-May 15:38 bscan: Got EOF at file 107 on device /dev/nsa2, Volume "A00008" ............ What does it mean? We are using bacula 1.36.3 on a FreeBSD 4.11 machine. The backup hardware is an EXABYTE Changer with an IBM LTO-3 drive. Thanks a lot.
