Hi

We have a strange problem during a restore job with bextract.

We tried to restore some files for a user from a collection of backup 
volumes for a Full backup job. Since the files are already purged from 
the volumes on our bacula server but we still had to job log and the 
volumes on another server we loaded all the volumes relevant to the 
jobid X (with list jobmedia jobid=X) from the second server into a 
folder /backup/tmp/ , created a boostrap file in the form of

Volume = <volumename1>
Volume = <volumename2>
...

an include file in the form

/home/username

and a bacula sd config file with the device

Device {
   Name = FileStorage
   Media Type = File
   Archive Device = /backup/tmp
   LabelMedia = yes;
   Random Access = Yes;
   AutomaticMount = yes;
   RemovableMedia = no;
   AlwaysOpen = yes;
}

Now we started the restore process with

bextract -b ./bootstrap -i ./includeliste -c ./bacula-sd.conf 
FileStorage /backup/tmp/restore

But during the process we get quiet a few errors

bextract JobId 0: Error: attribs.c:485 File size of restored file 
<filename> not correct. Original <filesize>, restored <smallerfilesize>.

We tried this with a bextract from bacula 5.0.1 (the one we use on our 
backup server) and 5.2.6. but both showed the same errors.

Goggeling the error messages showed some people had hardware problems or 
a defect file system but a file system check and a raid controller check 
on the system in question showed no problems.

Does anybody know if this is a known problems with restoring files by 
using bextract? Is there any solution? So far we only could restore 397G 
of the 600something GB in the backup job.

with regards
Christian
