Dear All,
I am using Bacula 5.0.3 on Solaris 10_x86. I am currently having an
issue where sometimes Tape jobs are hung in queue waiting for Disk jobs to
complete. I realize this is a factor of the Concurrent Jobs setting.
However, Bacula seems to continue processing Disk jobs that were scheduled
AFTER some Tape jobs, causing even further delays in completing tape jobs.
During this time, the drive is not in use. Also, I have not modified Job
Priorities in any way from defaults.
Does Bacula assign a higher priority to Disk jobs? The fact that Bacula
runs Disk jobs, queued after Tape jobs, before those jobs is troubling to
me. Also, the tape drive sitting for hours unused while Disk jobs is causing
major delays in my backup scheduling. Any ideas on why this is happening
would be very helpful.
I've considered running a second SD on the host, just to control and
queue jobs for the Tape drive. Is this a valid or recommended option?
Sincerely,
Shon
