Hello, I suspect that your database is not really well tuned, and is probably MySQL. In the Bacula version you are running, if you do commands that interact with the database, bconsole can block a very long time, but I have never heard of Bacula/bconsole blocking.
In any case, even with a poorly tuned database if you upgrade to 7.0.x, you probably will not experience this problem since we have made several performance improvements in just the case you are reporting.
