These are two different cases though. Bacula handles the case of an
unreachable or unresponsive client much more gracefully than the case
of a client that crashes or otherwise stops responding after a job has
begun. I've also seen jobs hang for hours at a time when a file
daemon crashes.
Another interesting thing that I've noticed is that there seem to be
two different file daemon timeouts at work. I'll generally see:
Warning: bnet.c:864 Could not connect to File daemon on
example.org:9102. ERR=No route to host
These time out in about 90 seconds, which is close to the "fd connect
timeout = 60 sec" value that I've set in the director resource. The
other type of timeout reports:
Warning: bnet.c:864 Could not connect to File daemon on
example.org:9102. ERR=Connection timed out
These result in a job that times out within a few seconds of 20
minutes, and I haven't found a parameter that allows this timeout to
be shortened.
