I can not imagine for what bacula this flag can use by an file-volume. A file-volume can not sooo easy going outside of the storage as a tape. ;-) I think its better the flag is by an file-volume every time set to 0, thats suppressed konfusion. regards Falk ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
