i really appriciate your help and my sd configuration is as follows i am new to bacula please help me how to fix this problem or i need to change any setting in sd configuration.I am using dell DLT 114T tape drive on debian sarge 3.1 kernel version 2.4.27.The tape status will change to full after 5 or 6 jobs i am really need in help mate.
 
Here is my bacula-sd configuration
Device {
  Name = DLT-VS160                        #
  Media Type = DLT
  Archive Device = /dev/nst0
  AutomaticMount = yes;            # !! mount drive after job
  Always Open = yes;               # not unmount, via new bconsole script (if console unmount)
  RemovableM edia = yes;
  RandomAccess = no;
 }
 
my batpe output as follows
 
btape -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf /dev/nst0
Tape block granularity is 1024 bytes.
btape: butil.c:258 Using device: "/dev/nst0" for writing.

btape: btape.c:482 Moved to end of medium.
We should be in file 3. I am at file 3. This is correct!
Now the important part, I am going to attempt to append to the tape.
btape: btape.c:1505 Wrote one record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:1507 Wrote block to device.
btape: btape.c:465 Wrote 1 EOF to /dev/nst0
btape: btape.c:435 Rewound /dev/nst0
Done appending, there should be no I/O errors
Doing Bacula scan of blocks:
1 block of 64448 bytes in file 1
End of File mark.
2 blocks of 64448 bytes in file 2
End of File mark.
3 blocks of 64448 bytes in file 3
End of File mark.
1 block of 64448 bytes in file 4
End of File mark.
Total files=4, blocks=7, bytes = 451,136
End scanning the tape.
We should be in file 4. I am at file 4. This is correct!
The above Bacula scan should have output identical to what follows.
Please double check it ...
=== Sample correct output ===
1 block of 64448 bytes in file 1
End of File mark.
2 blocks of 64448 bytes in file 2
End of File mark.
3 blocks of 64448 bytes in file 3
End of File mark.
1 block of 64448 bytes in file 4
End of File mark.
Total files=4, blocks=7, bytes = 451,136
=== End sample correct output ===
If the above scan output is not identical to the
sample output, you MUST correct the problem
or Bacula will not be able to write multiple Jobs to
the tape.
=== Write, backup, and re-read test ===
I'm going to write three records and an EOF
then backup over the EOF and re-read the last record.
Bacula does this after writing the last block on the
tape to verify that the block was written correctly.
This is not an *essential* feature ...
btape: btape.c:4 35 Rewound /dev/nst0
btape: btape.c:665 Wrote first record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:676 Wrote second record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:687 Wrote third record of 64412 bytes.
btape: btape.c:465 Wrote 1 EOF to /dev/nst0
btape: btape.c:703 Backspaced over EOF OK.
btape: btape.c:708 Backspace record OK.
btape: btape.c:726
Block re-read correct. Test succeeded!
=== End Write, backup, and re-read test ===
 
=== Forward space files test ===
This test is essential to Bacula.
I'm going to write five files then test forward spacing

This is the reason Bacula considers the tape full. You'll have to make
sure that your SCSI setup is working correct and that your hardware is ok.
