As a first step: Make a backup of your current catalog. No need to write it into a tape, a file will be enough. Have a look at the run-before-job- directive of your catalog backup job definition, you propably may copy the command to (system) command prompt as it is. It will result in a BIG file, depending on the size of your catalog it may be from megabytes to gigabyte(s). Propably in /var/lib/bacula. You may still want to rename this file so there is even less chance you could accidentally overwite it. Secondly, make absolutely sure you won't write anyting into the Full_App_0001 volume. If the tape has write-protect notch, use it. Or modify the catalog bits to "used" and "recycle=0". Or something similar. It will be a final disaster if any job (a scheduled or a manually started one) starts writing into the tape that was marked "recycled". Then, run bscan on that tape, to get it back into your catalog. I've done this once years ago, and it was slooow at that time. I guess the latest bacula can do it much faster, so if you have old version it might be worth of upgrading first. If everything goes well, you'll now have the contents of the tape in your catalog, and you are able to run a regular restore. If something went badly wrong, you can always resume your original catalog from the ascii dump file you created. So no big need to worry about messing with the catalog, what you need to worry about is not to mess with your physical tape! Good luck!
