[Bacula-users] Verify changes last written time?

2007-10-12 Thread kshatriyak
Hi group, I'm using Bacula 2.2.4. Lately i've implemented Verify Jobs for my tapes. I've noticed that a *Verify* changed the 'LastWritten'-time of the tape (which seems very incorrect to me- a verify doesn't write on the tape at all!). The LastWritten-time also influences the expiretime of the
