I am trying to backup several PCs (Linux and Windows) into a backup
server which runs the director and the storage daemon.  When running
individual test jobs, Bacula performs well.  But what I am trying to
do is have Bacula director order a daily backup to all FDs at 12 NN.
However, when one PC is not connected to the network, Bacula seems to
hang and I can not get into bconsole.  And when I am in bconsole when
the schedule is run, it becomes unresponsive.  I am using Bacula
1.36.3 on Ubuntu.

Am I correct to assume that when all of my FDs are ordered to backup,
the director will queue them up and waits for the first FD to finish
the backup then goes to the next and so on up the queue?  What happens
when a defined FD is not on the network?

I would appreciate if anyone can point me to a direction leading to a
solution.  Thanks.

I already have

FDConnectTimeout = 1 minutes
SDConnectTimeout = 1 minutes

in the Director resource in my bacula-dir.conf

I also have

SD Connect Timeout = 5 minutes

in my FileDaemon resource in $clients-fd.conf

Here are some relevant settings in my bacula-dir.conf

Client {
  Name = $client-fd             # I have 15 clients (similar config)
  Address = $clienthostname
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = "password"
  File Retention = 30 days
  Job Retention = 6 months
  AutoPrune = yes

}

JobDefs {
  Name = "DefaultJob"
  Type = Backup
  Level = Incremental
  FileSet = "Linux Set"
  Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
  Storage = File
  Messages = Standard
  Pool = Default
  Full Backup Pool = Full-Pool
  Incremental Backup Pool = Inc-Pool
  Differential Backup Pool = Diff-Pool
  Priority = 10
  Reschedule on Error = yes
  Reschedule Interval = 1 hours
  Reschedule Times = 3
}

Job {
  Name = "$client-job"                      #again 15 of these
  JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
  Client = $client-fd
  Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/$client.bsr"

Schedule {
  Name = "WeeklyCycle"
  Run = Level=Full 1st sun at 12:05
  Run = Level=Differential 2nd-5th sun at 12:05
  Run = Level=Incremental mon-sat at 11:05
}
