I realize that I posted this earlier this weekend but with the American holiday weekend, I am worried some people didn't see it. I really could use any opinion on this as tape backups are really new to me. I'm test piloting bacula on a FreeBSD 5.4-REL system. All seemed to work well in monitored tests. So last night I set up a job to run at night. When I came in this morning, all seemed to go well...the backup happened but I noticed 3 messages on the console: (sa0:ahc0:0:6:0): 65536-byte tape record bigger than supplied buffer (sa0:ahc0:0:6:0): 65536-byte tape record bigger than supplied buffer (sa0:ahc0:0:6:0): 65536-byte tape record bigger than supplied buffer The backup seemed to go okay as I restored several files off of that tape with no problems. Realizing the console messages mean what it does at face value, was any data lost(should i take this as a "warning" or as an "error") ? Thnak you for any experience that you can share with me on tape backups. - Damian
