I would say that you just have very compressible files. The native size of LTO-2 is 200GB and they are marketed at 400 with 2 to 1 compression.
If your getting 535GB on a 200GB tape your doing better than I am as I only get 500 to 700 GB on a 400GB LTO-3 tape. -Jason On Tue, 2008-01-08 at 15:54 +0100, renatn oblak wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > dear list! > > - --problem: > the capacity of the tapes are 400GB, but the Last Volume Bytes of the > bacula-message says 535.8 GB already! > how is this possible? > i tried to restore a file from this tape, no problem. > and as you can see in the following output, there are no > errors. > nevertheless i'm worried about this. > > ===> Last Volume Bytes: 535,821,986,209 (535.8 GB) > Non-fatal FD errors: 0 > SD Errors: 0 > FD termination status: OK > SD termination status: OK > Termination: Backup OK > > - --facts: > os: debian linux 2.6.18 etch > produkt version: bacula-1.38.11-8 > tape drive: HP Ultrium 448i > media: hp ultrium2 with capacity of 400GB > > ...thanks in advance > renate > > > - -- > - ---mur.at-leitnergasse7/1-8010-graz-++43-316-82145155--- > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) > > iD8DBQFHg46uoHB5md8MNy0RArThAJ9mLORVFkZx8HMksVUvlX+GRpeeqwCfRsza > 8PubmKrl54PXsk2KuJa0mtM= > =kHnm > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace. > It's the best place to buy or sell services for > just about anything Open Source. > http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;164216239;13503038;w?http://sf.net/marketplace > _______________________________________________ > Bacula-users mailing list > Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jason A.
