Is there a script or utility I can use to verify the backup on the tape?
Does bacula support hardware compression? How well does it work generally?
If I can recover files from the first volume, does it mean the volume
and backup are ok?

Hi,
Just started using Bacula and completed backup to the first volume. Now
backup moved to second volume. However, the volume status for the first
volume shows error.
Also the size of data put on the volume seems larger
than the spec (176G vs 160G).
This is quite reasonable. I'm using LTO1 with 100GB tapes for Full
backups, and getting as much as 130GB of data on them with hardware
compression. The errored state is a problem, though. My experience is
that this does occasionally happen, though I can't nail down any single
cause for it. It usually means that the number of files on the volume
and the number of files recorded in the catalog for that volume do not
match, but what causes the mismatch varies.
