Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula Console - shows conflicting info

Brad,

What I'd do is run the bconsole's "estimate" command to verify the connection. If it is successful you should see a short summary report how many files the job will backup, sizes, and so on. It will not backup anything.

If it fails login to the client and run:

ps -ef | grep bacula

You should see bacula-fd process running. I suspect bacula-fd is not running based on what you've posted so far.

If all good so far check your firewall settings. Make sure the client allows connection on tcp/udp port 9102.

I am not sure what your exact configuration is but my guess/hunch is
that your jobs are being spooled to the server, but while they are then
being de-spooled to your volumes, the connection back to the client is
cut off for whatever reason ("Connection reset by peer" error). This I
think would explain why the client may in fact think it finished ok but
the server doesn't. That is probably technically a bug and not a
feature. :) Look at the Bacula "Heartbeat Interval" option if you are
not using this already and see if that helps to keep the connection alive.

hope this helps,
