thank you Wanderlei and Dimitry!!!
followed advice from both of you, changed Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2 in configs:
[root@bacula bacula]# grep "Maximum Concurrent Jobs" *.conf
bacula-dir.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
bacula-dir.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
bacula-fd.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
bacula-sd.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
bacula-sd.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2 # Added by Jan to test 2 jobs
now second job is waiting for Storage “File”
Running Jobs:
Console connected at 07-Mar-17 10:56
JobId Type Level Files Bytes Name Status
======================================================================
10891 Back Incr 0 0 Zabbix is running
10892 Back Incr 0 0 OTRS is waiting on Storage "File"
What’s the proper settings for Storage File, please?
Thanks, take care

Bacula treats "Maximum Concurrent Job" by Resource.
Sou you need to change as your need
I suggest increase this value in Director, and Storage, and in the Client let only 2.
Be careful with possible bottlenecks of disk writes

Hi Wanderlei,
checked for Max jobs, this is what I have in /etc/bacula
[root@bacula bacula]# grep "Maximum Concurrent Jobs" *.conf
bacula-dir.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
bacula-fd.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
bacula-sd.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
Should I change bacula-fd.conf and bacula-sd.conf to Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2?
or is there anything else I should change/add?
Thanks, take care

Hello Jan
You need to configure "Maximum Concurrent Jobs" in these files/resources:
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = XXX
Resource: Director, Storage, Client
Resource: Storage, Device

Good morning, Bacula gurus!
I have another question:
How do I run 2 backup jobs simultaneously?
I have 2 pools :
ITServersPool-A
ITServersPool-B
And I’ve changed bacula-dir.conf: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
Now I’ve started 2 backup jobs manually for servers in each pool
Zabbix server is a member of ITServersPool-A and OTRS is a member of ITServersPool-B
However, I can see only 1 backup is running, while second backup is waiting.
What’s the trick, please?
Running Jobs:
Console connected at 07-Mar-17 09:53
JobId Type Level Files Bytes Name Status
======================================================================
10889 Back Incr 0 0 Zabbix is running
10890 Back Incr 0 0 OTRS is waiting on max Storage jobs

Many thanks in advance, would appreciate any input from you guys!!!
Thanks, take care
