Hello, I am very new to bacula. My question : Is it possible (e.g. with bconsole) to seek the "append position" of a tape after rewinding the tape because of a restore etc. In the case of a backup run it takes a long time ( up to hours ) until the storage daemon is finding the end-of-data position . ( Of course only if the tape is nearly full).
We are using bacula 1.36.3 on a FreeBSD 4.11 machine. The backup hardware is an EXABYTE Changer with an IBM LTO-3 drive. It seems to work well after testing with btape and using the following parameters: ... Hardware End of Medium = no BSF at EOM = yes Backward Space Record = no Fast Forward Space File = no TWO EOF = yes .... Thanks.
