Hello,

unfortunately spooling didn't helped here, so may you just had a
chance not getting errors in your case? A rule is that if it hapens
once that means it could happen more. And here is what we've got in
one of our tests:

---
enabled spooling (Maximum Job Spool Size
= 500m) performed the same and AGAIN the first job I tested to restore
~44K files are missing:

  Files Expected:         348,120
  Files Restored:         304,654

Another restore jobs is similar:
  Files Expected:         190,741
  Files Restored:         154,016

The case is slightly different as this time there is NO other errors
generated (like file with wrong size or the "Record header file index
not equal").
---

As it shows spooling doesn't solve the problem of concurrent jobs.

Regards.

MWa> Hello,

MWa> In my case spooling brought a remarkable improvement. Where as I had
MWa> hundreds of errors on one restore I hardly see them now again with
MWa> spooling in place. 

MWa> Doytchin,
MWa> I also saw the same behavior like you did. With the concurrent jobs = 1,
MWa> there were no errors. In this case no matter with or without spooling.

MWa> Unfortunately setting the concurrent jobs = 1 is not an option in our
MWa> environment. So my current setting is spooling = on and concurrent jobs
MWa> = 5. 

MWa> With this settings, it looks like that the Linux systems (OpenSuse and
MWa> red hat) are ok but Solaris still has problems.

MWa> For example below is a restore I did on Friday. Of course I don't mind
MWa> about the door files. But the difference between expected and restored
MWa> files is ways to much. And even worse, I have no idea what happened to
MWa> the missing files. I don't know if this has to do something with the
MWa> restore errors we saw. This could also be something different.

MWa> During the weekend I moved bacula to a new and separate server. It runs
MWa> on OpenSuse 10.2 with the latest patches in place now. The few restore
MWa> jobs I've done so far with this went ok. 

MWa> All in all I still don't feel very comfortable with this, it needs more
MWa> tests to be done. I will continue with testing and keep you updated. 

MWa> Wolfgang

DS>> Seems this (concurrent jobs) is the problem.
