The documentation is outdated and this limit was removed (or perhaps vastly increased?) somewhere around the 7 mark. I’ve had jobs running a lot longer since upgrading.

 

In branch-5.2: http://www.bacula.org/git/cgit.cgi/bacula/tree/bacula/src/lib/bnet.c#n784

bsock->timeout = 60 * 60 * 6 * 24;   /* 6 days timeout */

 

In branch-7.0 this line is removed.


Well, I am not really sure that it was removed, since I would say that it was replaced.  The current bsock timeout is 200 days.

From Bacula’s main.pdf documentation:

 

Max Run Time = <time> The time specifies the maximum allowed time that a job may run, counted from when the job starts, (not necessarily the same as when the job was scheduled).

By default, the the watchdog thread will kill any Job that has run more than 6 days. The maximum watchdog timeout is independent of MaxRunTime and cannot be changed.

Thank you all for your responses.

I'll take a look at Bacula systems' whitepaper to see what they're

talking about. Meanwhile I'll explore some of the alternatives

discussed on this thread like copying files with scripts and making a

replica on SpiderOak or anything similar.

I hope we can have an interesting solution for this "problem" in the

near future.

 

 

Hi Jason!

 

You have said that "Bacula can't run jobs for so long without modifying

source code and recompiling".

 

What did you mean by that and can you give an example of the problem

you have experienced?

 

I am asking because I am not aware of the bacula's job duration related

limitations.
