Servers don't crash on high load unless they've got bad hardware or are out of memory - and bacula client doesn't use much memory. If it's grinding then you have under-specified the machine for the tasks it is asked to do. > Wouldn't it be better to use ionice -c2 -n7, even if the backup-task works > longer? If that allows you to get your backups done, then do it. However you would be better off identifying the root cause of your crashes. Making bacula "nicer" is only treating the symptoms. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor 25 network devices or servers for free with OpManager!
