Hi Andrey, I am using bacula 7.0.5 and I have tried to emulate the damaged backup volume but I have failed to get the Block checksum mismatch error. Since in my case bls continues to work up until the end of the volume it returns 0 which might be fine depending on the developer's decision whether the operation should be considered successful or not. Im my tests all the messages, including Error messages are sent to the stdout instead of the stderr. Again, there might be some logic behind it but it might be a good idea to send Error messages to the stderr. In your case I believe that the return value should be 1 as bls obviously encountered a fatal error and exited but since I failed to reproduce the problem you are experiencing I cannot confirm that is has been fixed without looking into the code. -- Josip Deanovic ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
