A full backup would lock the tape drive up for longer though.  At least the 
tape drive is actually hooked up to the system.  I suppose I should just bite 
the bullet, and backup again.   That way I know that I'm safe.

The error was:

Fatal error: Can't fill File table Query failed: INSERT INTO File (FileIndex, 
JobId, PathId, FilenameId, LStat, MD5)SELECT batch.FileIndex, batch.JobId, 
Path.PathId, Filename.FilenameId,batch.LStat, batch.MD5 FROM batch JOIN Path ON 
(batch.Path = Path.Path) JOIN Filename ON (batch.Name = Filename.Name): 
ERR=Disk is full writing './bacula/File.MYD' (Errcode: 28). Waiting for someone 
to free space... Retry in 60

The director claimed that it was inserting the attributes.  This was the first 
clue that there was problem, as this was what it said at 6:00 am when I woke up 
checked the system out.  I remember thinking "yea it finished."   Then later 
when I got in to work, I pulled my checklist off of the printer, logged in to 
the backup server since that is check 1.  It still said "inserting attributes", 
and then when I got to step 2 (check disk space) then I knew what the problem 
was.

Yes.  Or at least re-installing the system so it is laid out better.
