Hi Dan,
Both of the servers are running Debian Sarge, both running 2.6 kernels.
I don't have iptables running on either machine..
Regardless, try the Heart Beat Interval both in the File daemon and
the Storage daemon and set an interval of say five minutes.
So there is no way to resume the job?
What is the best way to go about formatting/reusing the tapes?
Thank you,
- Paul

We have two boxes, the first box (portia) is dedicated to running the

The storage daemon (running on portia) is connected to an 8 slot auto
changer which is configured and works correctly. Each tape is 200GB
before compression.
On the second box (pandora) is a ~600 gig directory which gets larger by
~25 gig each month. These files don't get deleted or modified.
I am trying to setup an incremental bacula job to backup these files to
tape.
Here are my job and pool resources so far:
Job {
Name = Daily_Archive_Job
Client = pandora-fd
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
FileSet = Archive
Storage = Tape
Messages = Standard
Pool = Daily_Archive_Pool
Schedule = Daily_Cycle
Priority = 5
Write Bootstrap = /var/lib/bacula/Daily_Archive_Job.bsr
}
Pool {
Name = Daily_Archive_Pool
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = no
Volume Retention = 99y
Recycle = no
}
When I run this job it stops after the tape is full and asks me to use
the label command to add another volume to the pool.
I ejected the tape, inserted a blank tape, labeled it and the job
started running again.
It appeared to write data for about 2 hours before giving me an error
about Connection timed out.
The two servers are connected by crossover cable at 100 Mbps
Full-Duplex.
Does anyone have any suggestion where to go from here?
That two hour period reminds of of this:

See the last section at that URL. You didn't mention operating
systems I'm guessing one of them is Windows.
