This has been brought up several times within the last week, but never
with the explanation and examination. I wonder if some of the other who
have experienced it (I do not know their names -- hopefully they can
chime in) can do the same thing for us. This is potentially serious,
seems like, if it is a widespread problem.
I think if the others can verify it, this should also be copied to
Bacula devel. I think I will try a large restore of my own today to see
what happens.
Please give the rest of the details of your setup, however -- you don't
even include the Bacula version, and that is a very basic piece of
information. Operating system (presumably RedHat Linux from the file you
backed up, but who knows), architecture... all would be useful.
