Thanks all for your prompt responses. It looks like much of the data we
are backing up are source and text files, so it is completely within
reason that these be highly compressable.
Furthermore, I did a full restore of a ~200GB fileset that spanned two
tapes and it worked perfectly well.

I have a backup of C:\, and I want to restore it to D:\, but it just
restores to D:\C, which isn't what I want :( I guess I can move it but
it would be nice to be able to do it directly.
Is there a way to 'chop' a prefix off of the file selections, eg ignore
everything before the first two /'s?

I had the exact same problem when I first tried to restore some files

As usual, the answer was in the documentation:

The last job of each backup is the bacula catalog, with a priority

I get a few occurrences of the following sorts of errors when doing a

There are 79 errors, but they are all in 'Temporary Internet Files', so

Hi Paul,
What version of bacula are you using.
AFAIK the Autochanger directive is only supported in 1.38.*.
Loooks like your might be using an older version or possibly didn't
close the brackets of the previous section maybe.
