Re: [Bacula-users] Could not connect to Storage daemon

Hi David,

Could you clarify some points?

1) your storage daemon is running on backups.networktest.com:9103.?

2) who is listening on the 3 ports bellow?

$ sudo netstat -an -f inet | grep 910

tcp4 0 0 *.9102 *.* LISTEN

tcp4 0 0 *.9103 *.* LISTEN

tcp4 0 0 *.9101 *.* LISTEN

3) are your director and storage at the same host?

4) all the failed jobs presents the same connection error?

02-Oct 00:45 nye-dir JobId 20983: Warning: bsock.c:132 Could not connect

to Storage daemon on backups.networktest.com:9103. ERR=Connection refused

Retrying ...

It seems to me you have some networking problems....

Regards,

Ana

An update: Incremental jobs for some (not all) of the hosts completed
successfully after changing the start time in bacula-dir.conf. I do not
see a pattern as to which ones failed or succeeded.

After changing back to the original time and restarting via the
bacula-dir script, all incremental jobs failed. The netstat utility says
the backup machine is listening on ports 910[1-3]:

$ sudo netstat -an -f inet | grep 910
tcp4 0 0 *.9102 *.* LISTEN
tcp4 0 0 *.9103 *.* LISTEN
tcp4 0 0 *.9101 *.* LISTEN

Thanks in advance for additional troubleshooting skills.
