Re: [Bacula-users] bacula - backup.c:892 Network send error

[Rao, U. R. (GSFC-672.0)[A. S. INC] <uth...@na...>]

Josh,

I have the Heartbeat interval set to 120 on the server right now. Should I change it to "60" and also add "Heartbeat 60" to the client-dir and client-fd files??

Thank you.
Uthra

I am not sure why I am suddenly having a problem? Last evening I tried to run a Full backup of one of the client again and this morning I saw the job was hung and the client machine had to be power cycled to bring it back on-line.

Yes, the heartbeat interval has to be set in the client config file as well. Why not make the heartbeat interval shorter, say 60 seconds for now, to be sure a switch or router between client and server is not timing out?

The other machine failed all Full to tape after some random amount of data ranging from 300G to 1.6T from around 1.8T. After replacing the NIC at the bacula server the problem went away. Before this we have tested all sort of other network related things to no avail, so it might also be the problem you are facing.
