One of the default jobs in the bacula-dir.conf file I got keeps getting scheduled, even though I commented it out and reloaded the director.
For example, now I see Incremental Backup 80 31-Oct-05 01:05 BackupCatalog Inc2005-10-30_0068 even though more than 24 hours previously I commented it out and told the director to reload (I think this was via Debian's /etc/init.d/bacula-director reload which looks as if it sends HUP. If I did force-reload it stops and starts the daemon, and I may have done that too. Today I did an upgrade which should have done a stop and start; the job was scheduled before that. My efforts yesterday seem to have done something, because every job ran in duplicate! Can anyone explain what's going on, what I'm misunderstanding, or how to fix things? Here are some theories: 1) The reload added to the existing list of scheduled jobs. However, this doesn't explain why I got BackupCatalog twice, since it was commented out with # at the front of the line. 2) # isn't really a comment character, and is ignored. 3) I didn't do what I thought I did (though I checked that I really saved the new bacula-dir.conf several times, along with the fact that the only BackupCatalog job was commented out). 4) BackupCatalog is now in some database of jobs bacula uses and commenting out the config file entry just leaves it there. 5) I'm completely missing something. I was using Debian's bacula 1.36.3-1b (my variant of 1 with a fix) and just upgraded to -2. Ross Boylan P.S. I'm going to file a wishlist bug about deleting scheduled jobs, unless I discover such a request is already present. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
