[Bacula-users] Spooling / Misconfiguration.
Hi. I'm runnning 2 concurrent jobs, and that works without any problems (after getting the 2 LTO3 drives on their own controller). Is it "by design" og a misconfiguraion that the two concurrent jobs hit the spooldata size at the same time? It would be nice if the Spool-limit was pr. job or something. Now, even I've got spooling, I'll actually put the 2 jobs to the same tape at the same time (this is a situation where the jobs go to the same pool) 12-Feb 09:49 bacula-sd JobId 13174: User specified spool size reached. 12-Feb 09:49 bacula-sd JobId 13181: User specified spool size reached. 12-Feb 09:49 bacula-sd JobId 13181: Writing spooled data to Volume. Despooling 18,198,928,610 bytes ... 12-Feb 09:49 bacula-sd JobId 13174: Writing spooled data to Volume. Despooling 281,801,145,301 bytes ...

That's by design, as the spool size limit is per storage device... you can limit the spool size per job, too. > It would be nice if the Spool-limit > was pr. job or something. It's in the manual :-) At http://www.bacula.org/manuals/en/install/install/Storage_Daemon_Configuratio.html#DeviceResource there is "Maximum Job Spool Size = bytes". > Now, even I've got spooling, I'll actually put > the 2 jobs to the same tape at the same time (this is a situation where > the jobs go to the same pool) > > 12-Feb 09:49 bacula-sd JobId 13174: User specified spool size reached. > 12-Feb 09:49 bacula-sd JobId 13181: User specified spool size reached. > 12-Feb 09:49 bacula-sd JobId 13181: Writing spooled data to Volume. > Despooling 18,198,928,610 bytes ... > 12-Feb 09:49 bacula-sd JobId 13174: Writing spooled data to Volume. > Despooling 281,801,145,301 bytes ... Actually, the writing of the data happens for one job first, then the other job. If you look at the 'status sd' output, you should find that one job is in state "despooling" while the other is in "despool_wait". At least that's what I see all the time. So, in short - nothing to worry about. Arno > Thanks. > -- Arno Lehmann IT-Service Lehmann www.its-lehmann.de - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

As long as it is not in use you can restart the sd with the director running. There is also a reload command in the console that reloads the config, but I am not sure it does that for the bacula-sd.

I knew that..but currently it it catching up on some TB-volumes, so I'd prefer not to disturb it :-) So if I could get these config-changes in, without interrupting current running jobs.

Erm... unless I missed something the SD needs to be restarted for configuration changes to take effect. Obviously, restarting it while jobs are running is not a good idea... And the setting we discussed is indeed part of the SD configuration. Arno > John > > - > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft > Defy all challenges.

I did not think reload would on the director would reload the config on the sd or not. I have always just restarted the sd when it was not in use and only after releasing the tapes from the drives.

Excellent.. I somehow had got the idea that it should be configured in the Job Resource in the director, since the limit was something connected to the Job. This is absolutely what I need. Can I make the storagedaemon reload it's configuration without restarting like the Director? Jesper -- Jesper - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
