Mark, My understanding is that Bacula will hold onto the Volume info as long as possible. Also, it won't delete the files from the tape/disk, just the reference to them in the catalog. If you find that you're failing several backups in a row and want to make sure the most recent good backup isn't lost, the easiest thing is probably to set that volume aside and not use it until you get another good backup.
The worst you would have to do for a restore is use bscan to find the file(s) you needed on the tape/disk. Hope that helps :) Tom +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by tomisom.s...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
