I haven't had the time to put together a proper bug report, but from cursory examination, it appears to be a problem when a job wants a tape that is already in use and therefore expects its file count to be what it was when the job started. Here's an example: ** First Job, Success ** 16-Nov 01:00 sbgrid-dir: Start Backup JobId 582, Job=CRYSTAL_HOME. 2006-11-16_01.00.00 16-Nov 00:47 home-fd: DIR and FD clocks differ by -763 seconds, FD automatically adjusting. 16-Nov 01:00 sbgrid-sd: Spooling data ... 16-Nov 01:44 sbgrid-sd: Job write elapsed time = 00:44:44, Transfer rate = 7.630 M bytes/second 16-Nov 01:44 sbgrid-sd: Committing spooled data to Volume "000005L2".
