Preliminary analysis at this point appears to indicate that it is a REALLY bad idea on an LTO drive to have bacula-sd's configured max block size not an exact multiple of LTO's native 1024-byte block unit. So, someone recently observed you could set max block size up to 2000000 on an LTO4 drive, with 2000000 being a Bacula internal limit. Well, and so you can; but don't use 2000000. Use a multiple of 1024. I've reset mine to 1024000 and I'm getting a sustained 72.5MB/s write to a HP external LTO4 on an LSI Logic Falcon series SAS-2 controller.
