[Bacula-users] BackupCatalog failes
Hi all, I use Bacula to backup 5 servers. One of the server's called applecrisps is no longer in service but I haven't deleted it from the backup process yet. For the past weeks, I've noticed the BackupCatalog fails and not sure how I can find out what is wrong here. 1650 Full 0 0 Error12-Jan-12 21:55 BackupCatalog The backup runs overnight and backs up three existing machines with no problem, I have set up everything to start at 20:05 and all three will be backed up just fine in less that 5 minutes. Then comes the mail server which takes until 5 AM. Then the backup for that non-existing server will start and since it doesn't exist, it fails. The problem is, in the morning when I get to the office, I notice the mail server is not accessible until 8:15 AM although Bacula record shows it finished at 5 AM. But if I run the command disable in bconsole and type the mail server job number let's say at 7 AM, the mail server will be up in about 15 minutes after that. Can you please help me figure out what is wrong here? I can post any log or config file here.
