This is not a released version but a beta version. I strongly recommend
upgrading to 2.0.

Ok, this looks fine. But s your spool device actually mounted to /backup
and has space available?

Ok, these three directives look good.

The job is not yet running.
When you have Bacula 2.0 setup, and the job actually runs, the output of
'sta sd' will show you if data is spooled; in the top of the output,
there is a line for each job showing what it's doing - spooling,
despooling, or waiting for despooling. At the bottom is a summary of the
space used for spooled data.
Actually, I believe this output is present in 1.39.30, too, but you
would have to mount a usable tape first...
