here is, do you have any capability (Linux LVM, for instance) to take a
filesystem snapshot, then mount a clone of the snapshot somewhere and
back that up?

Are you certain that ALL Bacula processes were halted? None of them
were hung?

It's not the years, it's
a dump file at all, and will in fact
simply take filesystem snapshots for my incremental database backups and
keep the most recent snapshot around until the next night's backup has
been completed.

Thanks for any suggestions,
Sorry Simone, but once you've partially overwritten the tape, you're
pretty much out of luck with any out-of-the-box tools. You'd have to
write a specific program to scan the entire tape beyond the EOT mark to
try to recover any data from it.

backup, it will not upgrade any *existing* backup.
However, if you delete *the most recent* Full backup, which has current
Incrementals or Differentials based upon it, then the *next* Incremental
or Differential that you run will be upgraded to Full.

is saturating your network, the only real way out of the problem is to

This is a solved problem. The following two existing directives added
to your JobDefs or Job resource will take care of this for you:
Allow Duplicate Jobs = no
Cancel Queued Duplicates = yes

of using a larger, not smaller,
block size for applications such as this where you expect the major
usage to be extended streaming reads and writes.
That said, my own disk SD runs on ZFS with default block size and works
just fine.

Uwe, if I run eight concurrent jobs on an LTO2, I'm sure you can run two
on an LTO4 without any problems.

of the correct architecture and OS
that has the database drivers, then install all the SD machines from
that build. Sure, tools like bscan that are linked against database
client libraries won't run; but if you're not going to try to use them
anyway, you don't really care about that.

, you might create a new empty
Catalog, then simply use bscan to scan the volume containing the most
recent catalog backup into the new Catalog, then run a full Catalog
restore from that.
