Greetings.
I need to revisit a topic I saw a little over a year ago that didn't
get any response.
I have added several clients to a new director. Of those added so
far, I have two to which the director is unable to connect. They both
report
Fatal error: bsockcore.c:209 Unable to connect to Client
with either a connection timeout or an interrupted system call.
I have compared the stanzas in bacula-dir.conf for the clients that
are working normally against those that aren't and validated the local
bacula-fd.conf files. I see no apparent configuration errors.
Since other clients are working, the cause is most likely in the new
clients. First, make sure that the bacula-fd daemon is indeed being
started on the client and is running. Make sure that TCP port 9102 is
open on the client and not blocked by the client's firewall. Make sure
that the hostname of the client resolves from the machines running
bacula-dir and bacula-sd.
An easy way to test this is to attempt to connect using telnet. From the
machine running bacula-dir:
telnet client.host.name 9102
This should connect and display a telnet-like prompt, awaiting a
command. If it does not connect, then look into why. If telnet cannot
resolve the client's hostname, then the error will be "name or service
not known". Correct DNS entries to fix. If it times out, then either
bacula-fd is not running on the client or the client's firewall is
blocking connections to TCP 9102,
If connecting with telnet DOES work, go into bconsole and issue a 'stat
client=client-name'. If that does not work, then almost certainly the
password is incorrect in bacula-fd.conf on the client.
All systems involved are running Debian 10 with Bacula 9.4.2. All
clients are on the same subnet.
Thanks,
Brendan Martin
