Now lets say disaster strikes. Drive eats the tape with incrementals 5, 7, and 
10.
You purge that volume because the data is now not recoverable and you have 
holes in your backup history.

I'd rather delete these volumes, because the physical tapes are gone. Nevertheless, pruning the associated jobs (both "prune volume" and "delete volume" imply that) is the right thing to do.

On the next backup it looks like by default Bareos will NOT detect there are 
files on the client not in the catalog if they were last updated before the 
most recent  backup (Incremental 20).

If you have accurate disabled that is true. I very much hope you have accurate mode enabled so these files will be picked up. If you don't have accurate enabled yet, you can just enable it on an existing set of jobs and it will just start to work.

So questions,
1. Verify that is correct understanding
Sounds right, yes.

2. Does adding accurate = yes  capture those files getting them in the next 
backup?
It will (besides other things) make the agent backup all files that are not in the catalog yet, no matter how old these are.

3. Does DiskToCatalog Verify job detect that there are missing files in the 
catalog?

I think this should be detected, but I never tried it myself.

Best Regards,
Andreas
