Dear All,
     I am running Version: 5.0.3 (04 August 2010) i386-pc-solaris2.10
solaris 5.10  Bacula.
I have a situation where backups are running and the client status
reports the backups as OK, but they jobs do not appear when I query
"List all backups for a Client". I know that the jobs aren't making it
into the Catalog because I have a Nagios check that runs against the
Catalog DB for Client Job status. The backup ran as the client
reports, but the check and sql query don't find it in the Catalog.

This seems to happen during when my very large backups are running
with a status of "Dir inserting Attributes". However, I don't get any
error in the job status from Bacula and am not getting any MySQL, DIR,
SD, or FD errors. The "very large" job backs up 239,897,443 files.
This just might be more than MySQL can handle. I'm just wondering why
I'm not getting any errors from Bacula about it, or where to find them
that I'm not picking up on them.

Also, right now my Director is hung. The very large job is "Dir
inserting Attributes" and there is a job with "fatal error". Anytime
I've ever had "fatal error", I've had to restart the director. It just
won't recover, cancel the job, process other queued jobs, nothing.
Trying to cancel the job results in the message that its marked to be
cancelled, but bconsole then never returns to a prompt.

Any help with diagnosing and solving this issue is very appreciated.
I'm almost wondering if I've reached the end of the capabilities of
Bacula (probably not Bacula's fault, but just too much for MySQL or
PostgreSQL to bear with not any other viable backend) I tuned for 15
million rows originally, don't know if I can tune for what is probably
a billion rows or more.

Yours,
Shon
