Here are some of the details: I am running the director on Debian Linux. The director version is 1.36.1 (26 November 2004). The client is running SuSe Linux 9.2. The backup media i am using is Exabyte Mammoth-2 tape storage using Exabyte 8mm data cartridges. The restore was initialized from bconsole using restore. Then i marked the files and started the job. As for how i know that the file is the last in the volume, i am including the relevant part of the job report. The actual restore was thousands of files so i am just sending the relevant part:
