The Bacula log file is the first place to look, to see if it says why the tape was marked as full. Also check the system log files/console for error messages. __Martin -- ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users

When bacula encounters a write error it assumes the tape is full at that point.

A LTO-4 tape has a capacity of 800 GB native, and 1.6 TB compressed . I have absoultely no idea why this tape is already full. Could someone please help. What are the modifications that need to be made on the bacula-dir.conf file to fix this ???
