Hello Christian,

Have you tried the recovery from tapes without using the bootstrap file? It
can be done this way:

./bscan -V TestVolume1 -v -s -m -c bacula-sd.conf /dev/nst0

And if have your backup in more than one volume, you can try this way:

./bscan -V TestVolume1/|TestVolume2/|TestVolume3 -v -s -m -c
bacula-sd.conf /dev/nst0


Maybe the bootstrap file that you have created is missing something. I have
been using bscan without mentioning bootstrap files and It works fine for
me.


Best regards,
Ana
