In looking at your output, I see that you are using a TCP
connection. That is not the optimal way or the default way to
run Bacula with a local database. On my server:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:9101
0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1660/bacula-dir
unix 2 [ ] DGRAM 201036
1660/bacula-dir
I suspect that the "permanent" connection you see is something
that the PostgreSQL client library does itself as a control
mechanism, and in that case, if that connection drops perhaps
the client library ceases to work.
I use the default bacula-dir.conf for the Catalog.
Hello, thank you for reply.
But Heartbeat interval is a socket option, and is not what I
need.
Let me be more precise:
after completion job in bacula-console:
# netstat -nap|grep ESTABLISHED|grep bacula-dir
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:55336
127.0.0.1:5432 ESTABLISHED 10244/bacula-dir
tcp 0 0 192.168.63.16:9101
192.168.63.16:51950 ESTABLISHED 10244/bacula-dir
as you can see there is still established database connection
after job completion (to 127.0.0.1 port 5432), if I run the
second job the same connection is used (no new connection is
opened, and the first one remains established)
If I restart database and in the same console try to run job,
I get these errors:
17-май 16:16 sup1-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: bdb.h:107
bdb.h:107 query SELECT ClientId,Uname FROM Client WHERE

Client (Name,Uname,AutoPrune,FileRetention,JobRetention)
VALUES (''serv1'','''',1,31536000,31536000) failed. ERR=...
and of course no established connection appear in netstat
If it helps to clear the situation I can show tcpdump output.

Hello Andrey
As Kern said in that bugreport, "Every job that starts
opens a new connection (sometimes during the job
additional connections will be opened)."
But is not persistent.
If you are running a command "list files jobid=XXX" of
a job with some million of files and you have connection
problems, maybe bconsole can be close, but is very rare.
Probably you can have a network issue and not bacula
issue
If you have some problem about connection lost with
client or storage, is interesting activate the option
"Heartbeat Interval" in some Resources:
Heartbeat Interval = 300 seconds # Is a good
configuration
Include the option above in the following
files/resources:
bacula-dir.conf - Director, Storage, Client
bacula-fd.conf - FileDaemon (client side)
