Hi all, I have a problem with latest bacula and remote backup. I am running bacula-dir on a Linux box, and want to backup some remote machines running Linux (with 2.4 kernel) as well. Only a firewall is in between, open for all 3 ports 9101:9103.
Unfortunately I can't give an exact error description, since the problem occurs on different clients and at different times. Sometimes, I have no problem saving all data of remote client A, then next time I get an error after X bytes (this amount of X bytes differs as well). Error is, that the backup job seems to "hang", nothing happens. With tcpdump I can't see any network traffic between the 2 hosts, except one packet on port 9102 or 9103 every 2 minutes. The same happens (randomly) with other remote clients. After a while, I get a "ERR=broken pipe" message and the backup job is canceled. First, I could solve this issue with "vacuum" on the sqlite DB, but now I am using MySQL and even with that backend this error occurs. I tried to activate "Hearbeat Interval = 60 sec" on all clients and storage daemon, but that did not solve the issue. The only difference with this setting is, that the job does not get canceled and nothing happens until I manually cancel the job. Has anybody an idea what could be wrong here? I do not think it's a firewall issue, since sometimes even a full backup (with around 5GB data) has no problem at all, and sometimes the error occurs after only 100MB data. I am looking forward to any help, I have no idea left :( Greetings and TIA, Matthias -- Apu: You look familiar, sir. Are you on the television or something? Homer: Sorry, buddy.
