[bareos-users] Bareos stop backup a lot of directories

Hi,

I have now discovered that my Bareos server has stopped backing up a number of directories in linux servers, including /root, since 7/16/2018.

The Bareos conf files have not changed since 12/21/2016, when I installed Bareos 16.2.

I only discovered this error because I had to do a file restore, which luckily was there, but I noticed that several others were not.

Every morning I check the backup from the previous night. Error messages only when I forget to fill the tape library with new tapes. I have never received error messages from non-backed-up directories.

It can only be a bug, I did not find any other explanation.


Job, jobdefs and fileset conf files attached!


Regards,
Emerson

I found a fact that may be related to the problem.

On July 16, 2018, which is the date of the last backup of these files, all Linux servers ran two incremental jobs, one at the correct time (around 9:30 p.m.) and another 50 minutes earlier!

The incremental job that ran at 8:40 pm was the last backup record of these files. Since then, each server ran three full backups and six differential backups. And even then I do not find backups of these files on the webui.

Hi,

show us your filesystem configuration (the one from bareos) please.
