I'm seeing the same issue:

root 2013 0.6 41.1 66069424 27145828 ? Ssl 2016 2749:02 /usr/sbin/bareos-fd

Happy to help if there's anything I can do to debug as well.

Thanks for the rapid feedback. Unfortunately, we have moved to another backup system.

Just out of interest: to which system did you move?

I guess I can close this issue then for now. Please reopen if you want to give it another try and the problem persists.
Thank you!

Som proprietary system - not my fault - but it'd be nice if it took a bit less than two years to get an answer from a bug report

We're improving on that right now. But as you might know time is limited and providing free community support is not always the top priority.
