I've noticed this under Ubuntu (Server 12.04) too. It looks like reload doesn't have any effect for bacula-sd 5.2.x, so you have to wait until no jobs are running and then restart it.
I haven't tried to figure out if it is a limitation in bacula-sd or a configuration error in the service commands that control it, because my backups run at night and I only make configuration changes during daytime anyhow. -----Original Message----- From: Andrea Carpani [mailto:andrea.carp...@dnshosting.it] Sent: 24 October 2014 9:48 To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Bacula-users] Configuration reload for bacula-sd Hi all, I'm still new to the product and I was playing around with Bacula 5.2.6 (latest packages that come with CentOS 6.5). I added a new storage device to the Storage Daemon. I tried to run a job that used this device, but the backup failed apparently because bacula-sd wan't aware of this new device. I tried to use service bacula-sd reload but this didn't work, so I had to restart bacula-sd, but this broke my running backups. So my question is: is there a way to reload bacula-sd configuration on the fly? regards, Andrea .a.c. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
