Same Problem now on other Servers
kern.log:

only a reboot helps :(
bacula-sd.conf
Minimum block size = 1999999
Maximum block size = 1999999
This is the only Value that we have changed. With lower Values our
Backup was verry slow. We have LTO4 Tapes. Whats your Values?
here is our stinit.def (only 1 line without comment header):
{buffer-writes read-ahead async-writes}
We made no changes to this File.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
