Normally all the hardlinks are restored correctly, but as the manual suggests, 
the only way to be sure with *your* configuration is to try doing restores 
with data you have saved.

Setting the Hardlinks option to no is a performance workaround when there are 
large numbers of hardlinks.  Doing so will cause Bacula to ignore hardlinks, 
and thus they will not be restored.

Since you didn't include a copy of the message, I'm not sure what warning you 
are talking about, so I wouldn't want to comment.  In general, I consider it 
a "bug" if Bacula prints hundreds of warning messages ...
