This is really quite surprising because we +have a fairly extensive regression test suite that explicitly tests for this +kind of problem many times. + +Despite our testing, there is indeed a bug in Bacula that has the following +characteristics: + +1. It happens only when multiple simultaneous Jobs are run (regardless of +whether or not data spooling is enabled), and happens only when the +Storage daemon is changing from one Volume to another -- i.e. the +backups span multiple volumes, and it only happens for Jobs writing +to the same volume. + +2. It has only been observed on disk based backup, but not on tape. + +3. Under the right circumstances (timing), it could and probably does happen +on tape backups. + +4. It seems to be timing dependent, and requires multiple clients to +reproduce, although under the right circumstances, it should be reproducible +with a single client doing multiple simultaneous backups. + +5. Analysis indicates that it happens most often when the clients are slow +(e.g. doing Incremental backups). + +6. It has been verified to exist in versions 2.0.x and 2.2.x. + +7. It should also be in version 1.38, but could not be reproduced in testing, +perhaps due to timing considerations or the fact that the test FD daemons +were version 2.2.2. + +8. The data is correctly stored on the Volume, but incorrect index (JobMedia) +records are stored in the database. (the JobMedia record generated during +the Volume change contains the index of the new Volume rather than the +previous Volume). This will be described in more detail below. + +9. You can prevent the problem from occurring by either turning off multiple +simultaneous Jobs or by ensuring that while running multiple simultaneous +Jobs that those Jobs do not span Volumes. E.g. you could manually mark +Volumes as full when they are sufficiently large. + +10. If you are not running multiple simultaneous Jobs, you will not be +affected by this bug. + +11. If you are running multiple simultaneous Jobs to tapes, I believe there is +a reasonable probability that this problem could show up when Jobs are split +across tapes. + +12. If you are running multiple simultaneous Jobs to disks, I believe there is +a high probability that this problem will show up when Jobs are split across +disks Volumes. + +13. The bug concerns only the Storage daemon so there is no need to update +the clients, though I do recommend updating the Director when installing +an updated Storage daemon. + +I have uploaded patches to bug #935 (bugs.bacula.org) that will correct +version 2.2.0, 2.2.1, and 2.2.2.
