David,
Turn off max concurrent jobs, or set to higher number.  Also select
allow multiple data streams in policy attributes in the schedule. In
Change storage unit, make sure you've selected maximum multiplexing per
drive to 5 or 6.  You'll have to restart the services to get the changes
to work. If this doesn't work let me know we can try a couple of other
things.

Thanks,
Judi

Simon

Not extensively in my opinion , currently running :

Mater server > 
2 jobs active to tape , 
2 Q'ed ( spitting out 134's ) until either active job completes 

Four drives available on master server , only two used , max jobs set
correctly
on both storage unit, global attributes and client 

Drives aren't down and tapes not stuck either , alternate drives used
however
only 2 at a time and Q'ed jobs give 134's until 1 out of two jobs
complete.

Cant figure the 134's and why 2/4 drives are only being used , 

Media server > 
7 jobs to disk > running fine mount on media server.
1 duplication >  job running fine to directly attached tape 
1 duplication > mounts tape and then hangs on reading > using master
server's
storage unit as mentioned above.

Cannot fatham , why only two dives being used and 134's.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Regards

David
