I ran into a strange failure mode, which I don't understand:
This is one of the typical reports I get when backing up the catalog:
JobId: 2974

Looks perfectly OK to me.

Looks OK to me, too.

There is a size limit of 8 GB per volume which worked fine for a long
time, but the something happened - the problem was that I ran out of
disk space on the partition where the backup volumes are stored.
Actually a long time ago, but without noticing.
What I don't understand is: neither bacula-dir nor bacula-sd gave
*any* indication of the problem.
dir Version: 1.38.5 (18 January 2006) i686-pc-linux-gnu redhat (Tettnang)
sd Version: 1.38.5 (18 January 2006) i686-pc-linux-gnu redhat (Tettnang)
The Archive Device is on a NFS mounted partition. I don't see any
error messages in any of the system logs, either.
Any ideas how to get aware of such a problem in the future?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
