Hello, I am not sure whether this is a bug or a feature request. I will happily fill in the form for either, once somebody advises...
The command that I run most often on bconsole is 'status director'. Unfortunately, bconsole often pauses for long periods of time during a 'status director' request. For example, whilst the query that bug 1472 talks about is running (generating accurate data). In that case, 'status director' is blocked regularly for more than five minutes. The situation is worse if there are multiple backups, each queuing up to make their query. This is particularly bad from the perspective of people who want to use bconsole as the engine behind a graphical interface. The user cannot get any idea of what is going on, and it seems as if bacula is 'stuck' indefinitely. It would be very good if 'status director' could be tweaked so that it does not get blocked. It seems to be the 'list_scheduled_jobs()' function that waits for a lock (LockRes()). In the worse case, it could at least quickly return a message that states that the resource is busy. But I think that it should be possible to do better than that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-devel
