Heh... I had something similar happen. I was testing Yosemite backup software on a machine where I have been running bacula successfully. Although I thought I had disabled Yosemite, such was not the case. At one point I rebooted the bacula server, and after it came back up I could NOT contact the bacula-sd... it would hang with no error messages indefinitely. Turns out that the brain-dead Yosemite package started up their daemon not from /etc/init.d/rc.* where you would expect it, but from /etc/inittab instead... and their daemon had hold of the /dev/sg3 device and wouldn't let go. I finally figured it out by using fuser on /dev/sg3 and found the daemon that had it locked. I have removed all traces of Yosemite from the system now. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
