I reported various problems a while ago related to a long-running archive job which needed a dozen tapes over a 3 day period. All would go well in the sense I would be prompted to change them when expected, with an email which scheduled itself in the usual exponential backoff matter. When I got to tape 9 or so though, the email frequency became exactly 5 minutes. This meant I was bombarded with them unless I could get to the server in time, which turned out to be 64 of these emails. The whole job then failed with the "failed to mount correct volume in time" message I reported here earlier.
So I'd put this down to my bad config or something else wrong on that server, when this morning I woke up to 64 emails from another one in another office, this time sending emails at 5 mins apart for a regular daily backup job. I can understand why after 64 of these its time to give up, but only when the full exponential backup schedule is used. In this state, it amounts to 64 * 5 mins = 5.33 hours, which for me the first time was the middle of the night before the job aborted. They are identical servers.
