On my Dell 124-T we are using ULTRIUM 2 Tapes that should hold 400gb
compressed. While troubleshooting a different issue I found that the
tapes are being marked as full when there is over 100GB of space left on
the tape. Is this normal or is this a configuration issue/bug? This is
on bacula 1.38.5 on Fedora Core 3. 

I did a list media pool=Default and got this:

In MediaID 6,7,8,9 I believe those rows are low because the server ran
out of drive space. That was poor planning on my part since this is a
new project and the server came in undersized. I am working to correct
that. The first row is when I first started this and is most likely
wrong. But I am concerned about 2,3,4,5. 
Can anyone shed some light or pointers about this.

TIA
