[Bacula-users] poor utilization of tape space

[Alan Polinsky]

I have recently moved from an old version of Bacula FROM THE 5.X series 
to 9.6, along with my move from Slackware 14.2 to Slackware 15, along 
with a change to Mariadb 10.5. (I would first like to thank Phil 
Stracchino for his help in getting things configured properly.) I am 
backing up to LTO2 tapes which should have a minimum of about 200 gigs 
of storage. I seem to be getting requests to mount a new tape after 
about 80 gigs. Initially I thought that perhaps a tape had some sort of 
defect, but that was disproved when I put in a previously unused tape. 
Perhaps I have not configured some parameter properly. Can someone 
suggest what parameter I might be able to change or add to assure more 
complete tape utilization? (I should mention that the tape drive wrote 
complete tapes under the old release.)

Thank you.
