[Bacula-users] Restoring catalog through bscan makes the last full job fail

[Christoph H. <em...@ch...>]

Evening...

I had accidentally purged a client and wanted to rebuild the catalog using
bscan. So I browsed through my status mails looking for the status report
of the last full backup. I inserted all three tapes mentioned in the backup
report and ran bscan like this:

/usr/lib/bacula/bscan.mysql -V bacula02 -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf \
    -u database-user -P database-password -v -s -m /dev/nst0
/usr/lib/bacula/bscan.mysql -V bacula12 -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf \
    -u database-user -P database-password -v -s -m /dev/nst0
/usr/lib/bacula/bscan.mysql -V bacula15 -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf \
    -u database-user -P database-password -v -s -m /dev/nst0

After the tapes have been read in I entered the bconsole and ran
"list jobs". (I needed to do this twice until today.) And both times
the full backup job was listed with status 'E' (error). Running
"list files jobid=188" told me that no files were backed up in that job.

Is this supposed to work normally and I have just had bad luck? Or did I
get the restoration procedure wrong?

Talking about Bacula 1.36.2 on Debian Sarge.

Hints welcome.

Regards
 Christoph
