Re: [Networker] server too busy for restores...

By design, you can only have one single process read from a aftd RO
device at a time, just like you would if you were restoring from tape.
If a RO device is already busy staging or cloning to another device, any
other process such as a restore would have to wait until the RO device
is freed up.

Hello,
This situation has hit us a few times in the last few weeks - quite
annoying
We will have backups happening to adv-file devices, including, possibly
cloning from the adv-file to tape happening when we need to do a restore.
The restore will be coming form the adv_file RO device, but we will still
have to "wait" for the device to be come unbusy. Don't know if it is all
the threads being taken up, or a locked read-only device.
Does anyone know why we might have to wait for a restore in either of
these cases?
Thanks,
