I came back on this. Consider this VirtualFull job that have to consolidate 8TB of data: 28-Jan 17:27 lnfbacula-dir JobId 34442: Start Virtual Backup JobId 34442, Job=PUG-IBR-EEG2Ril.2025-01-28_17.27.42_28 28-Jan 17:27 lnfbacula-dir JobId 34442: Consolidating JobIds=30204,29141,29201,29261,29321,29534,29594 28-Jan 17:27 lnfbacula-dir JobId 34442: Found 20588 files to consolidate into Virtual Full. 28-Jan 17:27 lnfbacula-dir JobId 34442: Using Device "MultiFileStorage1" to read. 28-Jan 17:27 lnfbacula-dir JobId 34442: Using Device "MultiFileStorage0" to write. 28-Jan 17:27 ibrpve3-sd JobId 34442: Ready to read from volume "EEG2Ril_0001" on File device "MultiFileStorage1" (/rpool-backup/bacula). 28-Jan 17:27 ibrpve3-sd JobId 34442: Recycled volume "EEG2Ril_0016" on File device "MultiFileStorage0" (/rpool-backup/bacula), all previous data lost. 28-Jan 17:27 lnfbacula-dir JobId 34442: Max Volume jobs=1 exceeded. Marking Volume "EEG2Ril_0016" as Used. 28-Jan 17:27 ibrpve3-sd JobId 34442: Forward spacing Volume "EEG2Ril_0001" to addr=240 29-Jan 06:39 ibrpve3-sd JobId 34442: End of Volume "EEG2Ril_0001" at addr=4999680044419 on device "MultiFileStorage1" (/rpool-backup/bacula). 29-Jan 06:39 ibrpve3-sd JobId 34442: Ready to read from volume "EEG2Ril_0002" on File device "MultiFileStorage1" (/rpool-backup/bacula). 29-Jan 06:39 ibrpve3-sd JobId 34442: Forward spacing Volume "EEG2Ril_0002" to addr=240 30-Jan 01:18 lnfbacula-dir JobId 34442: Error: Director's connection to SD for this Job was lost. 30-Jan 01:18 lnfbacula-dir JobId 34442: Error: Bacula lnfbacula-dir 9.4.2 (04Feb19): I use many 'virtualfull' backups, and works as expected, but have some megabyte of data, not 8TB. Probably the I/O is so intensive that the director lost access to the SD, backup fail, and restart again from the start. It seems to me that (at least with this hardware) a VirtualFull for such amount of data is not well suited; in the meantime, there's something i can do? Thanks. -- _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
