Does this mean that the tape is empty? I can not quite figure out what the code
says. I am not a C programmer. It is switching on rec->FileIndex but have not
figured out how that works yet.
I will try tomorrow with some tapes that I know have been through a full backup.
I know that they have a problem with the mount.
A blank tape is loaded but not mounted. It is then replaced the next day.
I am pretty sure that is not the case with all ofthe tapes. I onle have 3 and
they are all new ones that I have never personally run through a backup cycle.
Is there any way to get around the need to do the "mount"?
The other backup systems that we have just require a tape to be put in the
drive each day.

Well now I am in big trouble.
I am trying to use bscan to read a tape and restore the catalog information
from the tape.
I am following the example in the documentation
./bscan -s -m -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf -v -V D006 /dev/nst0
It says
bscan: butil.c:258 Using device: "/dev/nst0" for reading
Aug 10 21:57 bscan Ready to read from volume "D006" on device /dev/nst0
bscan: butil.c:274 Using Database: bacula User: bacula
bscan: butil.c:391 Volume is prelabeled. This tape can not be scanned.

1) it wanted the tape write enabled which makes me uncomfortable
2) Shouldn't it expect that each tape will be labeled if it has a backup on it.
Help. This is getting scary.

If I am lucky, I have some full backups on tape that I not need to restore.
I now have a fresh, clean, running bacula with no knowledge of life before 5
minutes ago.
I need to get the files off these tapes.
Any suggestions or warnings (besides write protect the media)?
I hope that bacula can figure out how it made all these tapes with backups
spanning volumes.
Each tape should contain 2 full backups and a bit (25 GB going ona 72 GB media)
