Hi Alan,
Kind of resurrecting an old thread.
I've been running a modified version of your script daily for the past year.
Last night tape run out of space on incremental backups.
A report from the night before was showing 56,674 MiB of raw
uncompressed space.
The total of backups from all clients since barely totals at 8 GB.
When I re-run the report script the tape is showing as full indeed.
Is it possible for the reading to be this inaccurate?
I.e. it assumed 56 GB when less than 8 GB was available?
Or maybe there is some kind of overhead LTO-4/Bacula need and reserve?
Cheers,
Adam

And pipe it through the script I posted at

Bingo!
