     Hi,

    I have a strange error when I try to restore a job on Bacula 1.38.11 on Solaris 10 ( i know this is old, but it has been running for 18 months without a glitch ) .

    I have to restore part of a fileset from a Bacula job that  is 55GB and contains 2,828,311 files.
    The file list creation takes about 4h hours to process and the list is missing a lot of files in the list. The restore inserted only 443,973 files of the 2,828,311 .

    I suspect the process does not have enough memory to process the whole list.
    Is there something I can do to give the director more memory to work with?

    Is there another way to restore the files?

    below is a log of my session:

    *restore

     First you select one or more JobIds that contain files

    to be restored. You will be presented several methods

    of specifying the JobIds. Then you will be allowed to

    select which files from those JobIds are to be restored.

    

    To select the JobIds, you have the following choices:

         1: List last 20 Jobs run

         2: List Jobs where a given File is saved

         3: Enter list of comma separated JobIds to select

         4: Enter SQL list command

         5: Select the most recent backup for a client

         6: Select backup for a client before a specified time

         7: Enter a list of files to restore

         8: Enter a list of files to restore before a specified time

         9: Find the JobIds of the most recent backup for a client

        10: Find the JobIds for a backup for a client before a specified time

        11: Enter a list of directories to restore for found JobIds

        12: Cancel

    Select item:  (1-12): 3

    Enter JobId(s), comma separated, to restore: 16435

    You have selected the following JobId: 16435

    

    Building directory tree for JobId 16435 ...  +++++++

    1 Job, 443,973 files inserted into the tree.
   

    You are now entering file selection mode where you add (mark) and

    remove (unmark) files to be restored. No files are initially added, unless

    you used the "all" keyword on the command line.

    Enter "done" to leave this mode.
    .......

    Thank you for any help you can provide.
