Martin, thanks for the hint. I will check that ..

Disk Volumes on an smb share (software raid1).
I already checked the harddrives, but they seems to be fine.

Something is very odd with my database. I walk through yesterday backups but 
not even 1 week old volumes.

Select the Client (1-25): 18
Automatically selected FileSet: FullWindows

You have selected the following JobIds: 1631,1915

Building directory tree for JobId(s) 1631,1915 ...  ++
--

For one or more of the JobIds selected, no files were found,
so file selection is not possible.
Most likely your retention policy pruned the files.

=======
I did now setup a new bacula server and try rebuild the database using bscan.
It's a good exercise anyway, but I really need to fix and understand the main 
problem.
There is nothing worse than a unreliable backup system.


Thanks for every hint.

Richard
