Got it, thank you for explanation.
I wondered why this connect was running. I know that it is better to
use filesystem sockets on local machine, just got the same behavior on
file sockets and gave a try to tcp setup, but saw this permanent connect.
Thought it was a bacula bug but guess it is really a postgresql library
issue.

In looking at your output, I see that you are using a TCP connection.
That is not the optimal way or the default way to run Bacula with a
local database. On my server:
netstat -nap|grep bacula-dir
I get:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:9101 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
1660/bacula-dir
unix 2 [ ] DGRAM 201036 1660/bacula-dir
I suspect that the "permanent" connection you see is something that
the PostgreSQL client library does itself as a control mechanism, and
in that case, if that connection drops perhaps the client library
ceases to work.
I use the default bacula-dir.conf for the Catalog.
Catalog {
Name = BackupDB
dbname = bacula; user = bacula; password = "highly secret"
}

Hello, thank you for reply.
But Heartbeat interval is a socket option, and is not what I need.
Let me be more precise:
after completion job in bacula-console:
# netstat -nap|grep ESTABLISHED|grep bacula-dir
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:55336 127.0.0.1:5432
ESTABLISHED 10244/bacula-dir
tcp 0 0 192.168.63.16:9101 192.168.63.16:51950
ESTABLISHED 10244/bacula-dir
as you can see there is still established database connection after
job completion (to 127.0.0.1 port 5432), if I run the second job the
same connection is used (no new connection is opened, and the first
one remains established)
If I restart database and in the same console try to run job, I get
these errors:
17-май 16:16 sup1-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: bdb.h:107 bdb.h:107 query

(Name,Uname,AutoPrune,FileRetention,JobRetention) VALUES
(''serv1'','''',1,31536000,31536000) failed. ERR=...
and of course no established connection appear in netstat
If it helps to clear the situation I can show tcpdump output.

Hello Andrey
As Kern said in that bugreport, "Every job that starts opens a new
connection (sometimes during the job additional connections will be
opened)."
But is not persistent.
If you are running a command "list files jobid=XXX" of a job with
some million of files and you have connection problems, maybe
bconsole can be close, but is very rare.
Probably you can have a network issue and not bacula issue
If you have some problem about connection lost with client or
storage, is interesting activate the option "Heartbeat Interval" in
some Resources:
Heartbeat Interval = 300 seconds # Is a good configuration
Include the option above in the following files/resources:
bacula-dir.conf - Director, Storage, Client
bacula-fd.conf - FileDaemon (client side)

Hello,
what connection type does bacula-dir use while connecting to
database,
permanent or not?
If bacula-dir uses permanent connection does it support reconnect?
Here what I can see:
When I launch bacula-console and run job manually, bacula-dir
establishes network connection to database and keep it till I close
bacula-console. If some network error occurs during this session any
sequential job commands fails dew to database unavailability.
I was trying to open a bug
(http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=2283
<http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=2283>) but
it was closed. It seems to me that bacula-dir indeed uses permanent
connections. I think there may be some misunderstanding on my side.
Please explain.
Debain 8, Bacula 7.4.3.
