In order to possibly avoid another 6 days of backing up my archive that
errored out - 

What are my options for being able to start an incremental backup using
the file/job records that are already in the db and complete the backup
of the rest of the files in another job?

There was no bootstrap file written and the job completion messages says
that 0 FD files were written and 0 SD files were written but 29 volume
names are listed.

The database has 3,745,376 rows in the 'file' table for the jobid.

The 'job' table has this entry:

jobid;"job";"name";"type";"level";"clientid";"jobstatus";"schedtime";"st
arttime";"endtime";"realendtime";"jobtdate";"volsessionid";"volsessionti
me";"jobfiles";"jobbytes";"joberrors";"jobmissingfiles";"poolid";"filese
tid";"purgedfiles";"hasbase";"priorjobid"

291;"LiveArchiveJob.2007-02-26_17.16.43";
"LiveArchiveJob";"B";"F";"3";"f";"2007-02-26 17:16:38";
"2007-02-26 17:16:45";"2007-03-04 17:17:05";
"2007-03-04 17:17:05";"1173046625";"64";"1170710685";
"0";"0";"0";"0";"3";"17";"0";"0";"0"

It's clear that the db record for the job doesn't get updated with the
number of files written, etc. 

Is it possible, given the other data that I have available, to
synthesize enough of the job record entry that it could be marked 'T'
(terminated normally) so it can be used as the basis for an incremental
job? I know that there is some risk that one or more files aren't
accounted for, but the data that is on tape should be good. If I have to
later track down a file or two that's an acceptable trade-off.

The pieces that seem to be missing are possibly the mediaid and
obviously the job records.
