Yes, you have to read about bacula utility commands: bextract, bls, bscan, bcopy. > 2. Is there a way to have Bacula always start full backups on a new > volume, instead of appending?

For full backup pool you have to set up "Use Volume Once = yes" parameter. Then volume will be marked as used instead of full/append. Next full backup will use next available volume. -- Radosław Korzeniewski rados...@korzeniewski.net
