Kern, Thank you for a very nice program.
I am using MySQL 4.0.14 with 2 LTO-2 tape drives in a 36 slot library, and my backups will fit on one tape. It turns out that using the Berkeley devices /dev/rmt/0cbn instead of /dev/rmt/0cn was the magic to get the restores to work correctly. I verified that I could read the full backup of my Solaris server. Now to go test restores on some of my Windows servers. BTW, my Qualstar RLS-8236 36 slot library with 2 Ultrium LTO-2 tape drives, Solaris 9 OS (no barcode reader) works just fine under bacula 1.37.30. I will want to upgrade to the latest bacula again to get the improved autochanger capabilities soon. Thank you.

That bug is fixed in 1.37.36, but the fix corrects a problem with writing the JobMedia records, so it won't do any good for data already written. You can manually correct it with a bit of pain by editing the bootstrap file and reordering the volumes and the entries that follow them up to the next volume in the order the volumes were written.
