Did you maybe set the File Retention lower than the Job retention? http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Catalog_Maintenance.html#SECTION002410000000000000000 If so, then your File Entries will be gone (even though the job is still in the DB for reference) and you will have to reimport them. Have a look at bextract and bscan to extract files without catalog and/or rebuild the catalog data respectively: http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Volume_Utility_Tools.html#SECTION004060000000000000000 Greetings, Michel -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) iD8DBQFGTaMG2Vs+MkscAyURAg98AJ9iVOhgTsyJHelDm0QSTkop5X+RpgCfcqM5 STZVxXsk48OvLxwaHRRGSoI= =sOgy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
