Greetings
I'm trying to understand Maximum Concurrent Jobs.
Here is an example output from status dir
Running Jobs:
Console connected at 19-Jun-09 17:51

9334 Full Alum3JobMain.2009-06-19_17.01.00_47 is running

9341 Full SubversionJob.2009-06-19_17.01.00_54 is waiting for
higher priority jobs to finish
====
These jobs are all being written to filestorage. Then when they are all
done the low priority jobs will trigger a run after script that will
start them all being copied to tape, but that is later.
So it looks like only one job is running because I have a maximum
concurrent directive relating to storage limiting the number of jobs
running concurrently.
Reading the storage daemons config documentation, there is only one and
it is on the storage daemon itself, not on the Device resource. It is
set to 50.
On this storage daemon I have 2 tape devices and one Filestorage device
on this storage Daemon.
I can see from the director configuration, there is a maximum concurrent
jobs directive for just about every resource. The director resource is
set to 5. All jobs are set to 5 with the exception of the copy jobs.
All client resources are set to 10. Each storage resource in the
directors config is set to a Max of 10.
So I'm not understanding why I can't have more jobs running at the same
time. The pool resource for the File-xxx pool sets Maximum Volume Jobs
= 1 so that each job will have it's own volume (or file on the hard
drive) that it is writing to.
Because I am writing to file first, I am not setting up spooling.
Any possible assistance in helping me understand this is apprecieated.
I guess I could be happy that everything is working, I'ts just that when
someone asks me why I can't get more jobs running concurrently, I want
to be able to answer. Because I know one person will ask.
