Re: [Bacula-users] Strange FD errors on Windows Full Backup Jobs

Sorry for letting this slide for so long.

It looks like the underlying cause was that my machine DID in fact run out of 
disk space at one point. This had caused several strange behaviors, one of 
which (not so strange really) was my database became corrupted and mostly 
unusable. Unfortunately for that bug report, I rebuilt the box and no longer 
have the debug data.

The assumption in the bug report is that the full disk is the trigger 
for the SD getting out of sync with the FD, BUT IT MAY NOT BE.  Or, it 
may be one of several triggers -- yours being something else.  The bug 
hasn't been diagnosed or fixed, and until it is, everybody's basically 
just guessing.

Which brings us to you.

You are experiencing the sync error without a full disk, so, MAYBE the 
full disk is not related to the sync problem as has been assumed.  If I 
were in your position, I would add a "me too" to the bug report, 
including the relevant diagnostics and (obviously) pointing out that 
unlike the reporter, your disk is not full.  Perhaps your input will 
help them diagnose & fix the problem.
