It would be better to do a single bscan with all the tapes mentioned in the correct order. The development (1.38.0) manual shows how to do that: bscan ... -V bacula02\|bacula12\|bacula15 ... if I remember right. 2. If JobId 188 existed in the database after the purge (i.e. you did not delete it), then during the bscan when it is re-inserted, it will probably get a new JobId. The output from bscan should indicate what happened. > > Regards > Christoph -- Best regards, Kern ("> /\ V_V ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
