Hi Michael,

 

it seems that this mentioned setting solved my problem. The weekend job finished without errors.

 

Here is the setting I changed:

In the vCenter server settings go to advanced settings (in German Erweiterte Einstellungen).

There you will find the switch: vpxd.httpClientIdleTimeout

The default value is 900.

I changed it to -1 (disable).

That worked for me.

The description of this switch doesn’t exactly fit on my problem, but the value of 900 sec (15 min) matched exactly. Therefore I gave it a try. I hope this really was the reason and my backup keeps running.

 

Perhaps this solves your problems, too.

 

@Tom:

I’m using bacula 5.2.5 from Ubuntu.

But I would believe the heartbeat should be the same here as in 5.2.10 which you checked.

 

Maybe I’ll find out some more…

 

Regards,

Markus
