Hi Arno, thank you very much for your exhaustive answer. Unfortunately, I have to admit that I fooled myself: This isnt an issue with Bacula itself, its an issue with my machine.
I couldnt believe that 120 GB of RAM would be too little, but after the upgrade of Debian, some docker container started to use excessive RAM, this caused the issues of Bacula.

I *suspect* it's not actually writing but the close() system call. I am not really a big user of CIFS, though, so I have no idea where I would start searching or asking. ENOMEM is a pretty generic error and not documented in close(2), fclose(3) or write(2) in the documentation I have in front of me. > There is plenty of space on the destination volume, also there is enough > RAM on the system. You might want to try strace'ing the FD to see if anything interesting happens, but I guess that, eventually, you'll find that the cause is in the CIFS part of the picture. I would also advise to check if volumes are properly written, which you can do with a restore, a verify job, or even a bls run. > My Setup is with Bacula V 15.0.2 in Docker containers on Debian 13. Container deployments are not well standardized with Bacula, I think, and last I did look into those things, network mounts were particularly tricky. Hopefully you'll find the cause and can share an explanation or solution. Cheers, Arno > Never had theses issues before.
