If something causes a temporary drop in the NFS connection, bacula will keep trying to use virtual tapes and marking them as "errored", one at a time, until it comes back. Every so often I have to clean out the error tapes so I don't run out of space in the pool. This does make sense since the storage daemon sees an I/O error. -- David Brodbeck System Administrator, Department of Mathematics University of California, Santa Barbara
