Apparently so, since the job(s) completed normally last night. I do
appreciate the feedback, though.
In trying to get all the parameters to match between both systems, I had
set the device name in the bacula-sd.conf file incorrectly.
On the primary, this is from bacula-dir.conf:
Storage {
Name = Remote-File
Device = FileStorage
Media Type = File
...
}
On the secondary, this is from bacula-sd.conf:
Device {
Name = FileStorage
Media Type = File
...
}
I had originally set the Name parameters to match, which turned out to
be the cause of the problem.
