With bacula 5.0.3 I had frequent crashes on Copy Jobs as I ran out of
memory. The SD-box has only 4GB RAM, now I added 8GB swap and it seems
to run fine.

Here the bacula-sd crashes and misses from process list.
I have another issue I have not been able to track down so far. The tape
changer seems to claim it has 0 slots now and then and bacula-sd really
dislikes that. Seems mostly to happen when tapes are moving and some
'mtx status'-like command is issued. If this happens, I need to stop
bacula-sd, it will take some time to umount the tape (bacula-sd has 'D'
state in 'ps'), only afterwards it can be started again and all is fine.
'update slots' without restart won't help, even as 'mtx status' gives
correct output again. Perhaps this is comparable to your "issue 'sudo
service bacula-sd stop' twice".
Regards,
Adrian
