I am still trying to do my first bacula backup to tape, its a 80G folder 
from 2006 disk based backups.

I think I have the correct  job set up, I understand its a manual full 
job (no schedule) and have run into 2 problems (as seen in the log below).

1. Why can't I use my tape? I don't care whats on it, I just want to 
overwrite it and expect the next to be prompted for when needed. I will 
call it anything!
2. Why does the "bytes" column show 58.2M when I know the backup is much 
bigger?

Also, is there a facility for bacula to send an email when the tape 
needs changing please?

Thanks!

Looking at this log, is it still waiting for the correct volume and if 
it found it would it then carry on with the backup?
