Mark,Carl,
Thanks a lot.

I didn't bounce the daemons (the backups were running and still
running now) after bumping up the "Maximum concurrent jobs" as I hoped
that change would take immediately. I will restart and let you know. I
hope that this is the fix.

I am trying to backup several clients simultaneously, so "Maximum Jobs
per client" should not be critical for me.

Aleks
