Corrupt database catalog?
I'm not sure what was corrupt first, but these tapes definitely look corrupt now. Did the output really go directly from the "Date label written:" line to the "bls: read_records.c:204-0" line with nothing in between? Firstly, the bls output of the volume label of 006273L6 doesn't match the labeldate in the llist output that you posted earlier: > *llist volume=006273L6 > Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog > Using Catalog "MyCatalog" > mediaid: 264 > volumename: 006273L6 > slot: 19 > poolid: 2 > mediatype: LTO6 > mediatypeid: 0 > firstwritten: 2017-12-22 03:45:03 > lastwritten: 2018-11-17 01:50:55 > labeldate: 2017-06-05 02:45:04 Are these values for firstwritten, lastwritten and labeldate what you expect? Other unusual thing is that you have "endblock: 0" in the catalog for these tapes. I don't know if that is wrong as such, but I have no volumes like that with real data on them. In addition, bls is finding jobs with Level=Differential and Level=Incremental from dates before the firstwritten date in the catalog. Possibly this tape was originally used in a different pool? Have you looked at the bacula logs to see what was reported when these tapes were used? __Martin _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
