Hi, I'm running bacula "Version: 9.6.5 (11 June 2020)" on a gentoo linux system installed by gentoo's package manager. This is what gentoo has as latest stable version. Although 9.6.6 would be available in testing branch.
I'm struggling to make bacula-sd to mount an nfs drive. The device configuration is as follows but it never mounts the nfs drive, although unmount is working fine: Device { Name = FileChgr1-Dev1 Media Type = File1 Archive Device = /mnt/backupmount/bacula LabelMedia = yes; Random Access = yes; AutomaticMount = yes; RemovableMedia = yes; AlwaysOpen = no; Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1 Requires Mount = yes; Mount Point = /mnt/backupmount Mount Command = "/bin/mount -t nfs -o rsize=32768,wsize=32768 DISKSTATION:/volume1/LinuxBackup %m" Unmount Command = "/bin/umount %m" } I always get errors like this in the console: ---- 21-May 18:41 localhost-dir JobId 4: Start Backup JobId 4, Job=BackupClient1.2021-05-21_18.41.20_13 21-May 18:41 localhost-sd JobId 4: Error: init_dev.c:122 [SE0001] Unable to stat device FileChgr1-Dev1 at /mnt/backupmount/bacula: ERR=No such file or directory 21-May 18:41 localhost-sd JobId 4: Warning: Device "FileChgr1-Dev1" in changer "FileChgr1" requested by DIR could not be opened or does not exist ---- And then the last 2 lines repeat over and over until the job fails. When I mount the nfs share manually (with copy & paste values taken from bacula-sd config) it works perfectly and then backup starts writing it's data and finishes just fine and as I wrote above it even properly umounts the nfs share once job is complete. I also tried enclosing "Mount Point" in quotes but without success. The problem with this is also that I cannot find out if the mount command fails with some error or is completely ignored as you can see in the console output it just says start backup and then immediately starts failing but I don't see any messag abount mounting or so. I'm really out of ideas and what to try to make it work. I think it would be useful to get more data from bacula-sd on what it's doing (if it's trying to mount at all or not and if so what error it encounters) but I couldn't find out how to do that.
