Davides suggestion to use Bacula-Web helped me to determine that I did backup what I had expected to and this comports with what bconsole shows. I had to upgrade my Bacula-Web to do this as it is a newish feature that I had not noticed.
Marcin’s suggestion to clear the bvfs cache has cleared up the missing storage path from the Baculum restore wizard. All is now good. Many thanks to you both.
