That's not the problem (or at least it doesn't seem like it is.) Neither of the times we have shut the server down has been during a backup. Bacula has been idle at the time of the shutdown. The prob
I'm not sure. When I shut the server down last time, it was just a routine reboot, so I wasn't even thinking of potential bacula problems. It wasn't until I started getting emails about failed backup

I understand the situation may not be the same but just five minutes ago I had an incident where bacula flagged the current tape volume in error reporting a mismatch between the number of files on th
Is there a procedure for shutting bacula down cleanly? In the last two months, I've had to shut down the bacula server twice, once for a scheduled power outage, and once due to a kernel upgrade. Both
