Yes, you can use bscan tool to read the volumes into the bacula
catalog.

If your bacula setup completely broken you can still restore files
from your volumes manually but this is another story.

If you have a clean bacula setup the bscan approach is the right
way to do it (and the easier one).

I believe that bacula manual could be helpful:
http://www.bacula.org/7.4.x-manuals/en/utility/utility.pdf

Look for bscan. It starts at section 1.7 at 10th page.

There is a section 1.7.2 Using bscan to Recreate a Catalog from a Volume

Good luck.
