Hi all,

A couple of weeks ago I upgraded my Bacula installation from 1.34 to
1.38.1. I made a few other changes at the same time and everything has
been working well since. Yesterday I decided to upgrade to 1.38.3. I
built from source using the same configuration options that I used to
build 1.38.1 with the addition of "--with-python". The build went  OK,
no errors. I stopped 1.38.1 and started 1.38.3. Everything seemed to be
OK. I ran a couple of small test backups and there were no errors so I
assumed that the upgrade went fine. Last night the scheduled backup ran
and after the first job, instead of continuing on to the next job, I got
this message ...

12-Dec 07:29 MyJob-SMB-sd: Job MyJob.2005-12-12_01.05.01 waiting to
reserve a device.

This morning, when I first saw this message, I just did a mount from
bconsole and the job continued, I have bacula configured for 6 jobs per
media and the tape wasn't full so the job should have just started as it
hallways has. Now it's time to backup up the catalog, to file, and I'm
getting the same message.

I have an HP DDS2 drive, no changer, running on Slackware 10. I'm using
the same conf files the worked fine on 1.38.1. Can anyone tell me why
I'm now getting this error message?
You are not by any chance running on a 2.4 kernel with /lib/tls?

Could you send me your bacula-dir.conf and bacula-sd.conf along with the
job report that shows the jobs blocking?

Thanks,
RickKnight

Thanks Kern,

I am running a 2.4.26 kernel, but I don't know about /lib/tls. I don't
have a /lib/tls on my system. How can I tell?

Try:

 ls -l /lib/tls

If it exists, then that could explain why it *appears* that Bacula is not seeing some pthread broadcasts that would allow it to continue. This is a bit of a long shot, but at this point, I need to consider all possibilities ...

In the mean time, I'll take a careful look at your config. Perhaps I have missed something important that I can add to my test cases. All my tests here succeeded perfectly ...

By the way, getting the message that a job is waiting to reserve a drive is not in itself bad. This happens in my test case. However, at some point when the drive is available, the job should continue as it does in my test case.

Also, the .conf files are attached along with the log.

Thanks again,
RickKnight

Kern,

I just got another job log email. Something I noticed is a clock difference between the Director and File daemons. The two lines below are from this mornings log (also attached). Could that be causing a problem?
