Encryption/decryption bacula testing


Hello All

I have successfully implemented bacula to backup data from the server onto tapes.

As bacula supports encryption I have also altered the config files so that the data is protected when placed on the backup tapes.

Although there are no errors, and once the backup is complete the message for the bacula backup (/var/mail folder) does state 'storage encryption : yes' but how do I know for sure that the data is actually encrypted???

What tests should I perform on the encryption/decryption before implementing all this for real?

Thanks in advance for any help!
