I was doing my first full backup of a specific host by specifically running
the job from bconsole.
While it was running the job for several minutes, I dediced to do a query from

I want to relabel a tape that is now called "Daily_4", and is part of the
Default pool. I have created pools Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and
Weekly. This volume has never been written to, and it is marked "purged".
If I use the label command, tell Bacula to call it "Thursday" and put it
I see. Thanks for the explanation anyway :) I suppose you're right about
the tape catching up to the file unless the minimum spool file size was at
least the size of one tape, but if you have that much space why not back up
to disk anyway, right? hehehe
Thanks,
Chris

If I allow multiple concurrent jobs in bacula and I enable data spooling

I'm interested in this also. Perhaps a Minimum Spool Size directive so that
the spool reaches a critical size to avoid shoe shining tapes, and once that
size is reached the storage daemon starts de-spooling from the beginning of
the spool file to the tape while still writing data from the file dae

If I change a fileset then bacula will upgrade the next job to a full backup

I have a value for "Maximum Spool Size" in the Device resource in
bacula-sd.conf, which probably explains why bacula only spools again after
de-spooling to tape.
I was just wondering if there is a feature / combination that will allow
bacula to spool again while it is de-spooling the previous

What if you need to restore from a tape / volume on another machine that is
