That is totally fine. Remember compression is variable.On a text only

Kern's docs also state that you should make your volumes no bigger than 5
gigabytes. I have set mine to 20 GB at present.

Fine, i understand it now. Is there a way to just spool attributes and not

Attribute spooling makes sense for either though.
Attribute spooling ?
That enables spooling if the database entries at the end of the job in
a batch instead of 1 at a time as the files are being processed. Its
quite a bit faster to enable attribute spooling unless you have your

Im using bacula 5.2 with 5 USB 500GB disks each for a working day of the

Now my problem is whenever I try to label a volume I get the error 3920

I tried to enable spooling (500 Gb spool) for the tape backup. The perf were
worse.
BTW, I use 5GB spool.
I assume then you do not run concurrent jobs? For a single job the
time will be longer because bacula does not concurrently spool and
despool but with concurrent jobs and spooling with a
