Volume 1 was not full since the status is "Append". It would have continued to use that until it was actually full. Bacula would not have moved on to any other tape until this tape was marked "Full" or "Used". Do you want bacula to move on to a second tape before the first tape is full? +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by dresche...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
