Re: [Bacula-users] Long running restore canceled by tape error? Any way

Thanks, however it appears that the bsr file is gone/overwritten, probably due to a screwup in my config file and the fact that I forgot to disable the backupcatalogue job. and a screw-up in the config where I used "%c.bsr" as the bootstrap name. For future reference, what would be better to avoid this, I was thinking somethin like "%c-%i-%t.bsr or what is standard practice?

Looks like I'll have to restart the restore again. Though getting an ignore read-error option would be nice (like tar & dd have) since all files w/ accurate have hash's should be realitively easy to come up at the end of a restore process to list out all files that did not match their hash due to watever reasons.

I do not believe there is a way at the moment. That is except the
manual recovery with the volume utility tools that I linked to in my
first reply.

Check if you have a proper bootstrap file for this restore. Next, tune this file and delete content associated with already restored data. Use it for manual restore or new restore job.
