Kern - thanks. Perhaps foolishly I didn't try any "one file test" jobs;
my comfort level with installing bacula on this distro with these tape
drives has become second-nature to the point that I didn't feel the need
(so I got bit), and of course with the weekend, trying to get it running
to have time to attend to other chores.
To be honest, I don't recall ever having looked at the catalog tables
until after jobs.
Cheers,
Ted.

Hello Ted,
This is probably perfectly normal if you have not yet finished any
jobs. By default the Filename entries are put in the catalog at the
end of each Job. The one entry you did find is a "blank" filename
which is used when putting Directory entries into the catalog (i.e.
for a Directory the Filename is empty).
If your job finishes normally the Filename table should be filled with
the names of files that were backed up.
Best regards,
Kern

Greets - I have a new installation of Bacula on Debian Jessie
(5.2.6+dfsg-9.3) with a postgres backend. This is not my first bacula
installation (I have 5 other separate instances running on different
tape units, some single TL2000, some library changers - all happy) --
except for this new one (maybe).
I never noticed exactly when bacula writes data to the file and
filename tables - I figured it did it on the fly.
