=> On the server when I run "stat dir" bacula tells me that the job was still 
running when the clie

jobs running.

I believe that I've seen similar differences between the output of "stat dir" 
and "stat client", but not due to the client crashing or a job being 
interrupted.

If I recall correctly, "stat dir" will report that a job is still running if 
it's despooling attributes to the backup media (a process that can take hours, 
depending on the amount of data), but "stat client" will show that the client 
job is not running. In some ways this is correct, as the communication between 
the bacula-dir and the client bacula-fd is finished, but it is a bit confusing.
