Hi Bill,
The following is the output of 'status director' when the jobs are waiting.
597 Back Full 146,973 667.8 G fileserver-active is
running
599 Back Incr 0 0 obsdata4
is waiting for higher priority jobs to finish
It seems that "obsdata4" it is waiting for a higher priority job.
Although the fileserver-active job does not have a priority set in the
config.
Also, obsdata4 has a Priority of 1 (highest), so I am currently unsure on
why this is happening.
Director {
Name = "bacula-dir"
Messages = "Daemon"
DirAddress = 127.0.0.1
QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql"
WorkingDirectory = "/var/spool/bacula"
PidDirectory = "/var/run"
MaximumConcurrentJobs = 20
Password = password
}
Job {
Name = "obsdata4"
Type = "Backup"
Level = "Incremental"
Storage = "Autochanger"
FullBackupPool = "LongTerm Archive"
IncrementalBackupPool = "Archive-Obsdata"
Client = "stars"
Fileset = "obsdata4"
Schedule = "STARS-DailyIncremental"
JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
Priority = 1
Accurate = yes
AllowDuplicateJobs = no
}
Job {
Name = "fileserver-active"
Description = "STN6 Fileserver Active Data Job"
Type = "Backup"
Level = "Full"
Storage = "Autochanger"

FullBackupPool = "Fileserver"
IncrementalBackupPool = "Fileserver"
Client = "fileserver"
Fileset = "fileserver-active"
Schedule = "Fileserver"
JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
Accurate = yes
}
