I am running Bareos on a server that about once a month has a hardware event the causes an instantaneous reboot with no proper shutdown. This is my problem.
However I have noticed that the processes bareos-fd and bareos-sd will recover on reboot even though the PID file for each process still exists. The process bareos-dir will not start because the PID file still exists but the process is NOT running. My local Linux guru tells me a process should not be using the existence of the PID file ALONE to abort starting. Is should be making some other API call to determine if it is safe to start.
