If that's the case, use bscan. Although I found that bscanning usually
takes longer than writing, though there are some factors involved
which make that hard to guess - starting with your network and client
throughput during backup, if spooling is used, and the catalog
performance.

That's surely right...

Hmm... the cases when I had that same problem usually resolved without
permanent erros, but I assume there might be some timeouts either in
MySQL or Bacula. In your case, the disk full condition might have
existed for too long to Bacula to automatically recover.
But this seems to confirm that the disk full was indeed the underlying
problem, and the insertion of the attributes finally failed.

I love LVM :-)
