Hi all,

how many backups can I start at once without causing errors?
Even with "only" 15 backups starting at once, I get one of the two
failures below:

Fatal error: sql_create.c:784 Lock Path table Query failed: LOCK
TABLES Path write, batch write, Path as p write: ERR=Can't find file:
'./bacula/Path.frm' (errno: 13)
Fatal error: sql_create.c:801 Lock Filename table Query failed: LOCK
TABLES Filename write, batch write, Filename as f write: ERR=Can't
find file: './bacula/Filename.frm' (errno: 13)

I am 99% sure this is a load issue and the result of several backups
starting at once.

Alternatively, is there a way to start backups randomly (e.g. +/- 5 minutes
against the scheduled time)? I would want to avoid cluttering the config
with dozens of schedules, if possible.


Thanks,
Richard Hartmann
