I'm using Bacula 2.2.3 and have a schedule that writes a full backup to DVD on monday night followed by incrementals for the rest of the week.
The full backup runs OK and the next four incrementals run OK, but the fifth incremental fails with the following error: 12-Oct 23:10 server-sd: Upfront.2007-10-12_23.10.00 Error: Bacula cannot write on DVD Volume "Daily1" because: The sizes do not match! Volume=100364766 Catalog=98272134 12-Oct 23:10 server-sd: Marking Volume "Daily1" in Error in Catalog. 12-Oct 23:10 server-sd: Job Upfront.2007-10-12_23.10.00 waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes. I've been through several iterations of blanking media, deleting and recreating the database. When I blank the media and restart a backup sequence I get the same result after the fourth incremental. I've commented out the no-tray option in dvd-handler and am using the latest dvd+rw-tools (7.0-7). "dvd-handler /dev/scd0 free" returns a freespace value and a "no errors reported" message. I've tried deleting the media entry in the catalog and recreating it using bscan using a dvd that has the full + 4 incremental backups and I get the mismatch error on the next incremental. Frustration is setting in, so I'd appreciate any pointers to where I might look for a cause/resolution to the roblem.
