I have an LTO2 drive with tapes that hold 200g native and 400g with hardware compression. I have the hardware compression turned on on my tape drive. I know because I went and manually made sure using the tape tools that come with FreeBSD (The os the storage daemon is running on). Last night my tape filled up with only 215G. I know it filled up because I got a message to change tapes from the daemon. I didn't do anything specific in Bacula to tell it to use hardware compression on the tape drive because I didn't think I had to. I made sure hardware compression was enabled in FreeBSD. My question is, is there a specific way to tell bacula to take advantage of hardware compression? Perhaps a setting in the storage daemon config file or the bacula director config file.
