As a slight follow up. I have got this to work by running two different storage directors – one for each autoloader (on separate ports).

 

Let me know if anyone knows an easier solution.

Hello

 

JobId Level   Name                       Status

======================================================================

  3673 Differe  trac_full.2010-06-12_07.59.48_11 is running

  3675 Differe  nitro_full.2010-06-12_08.06.47_13 is running

  3676 Increme  trac_full.2010-06-12_08.16.55_15 is waiting on Storage PV132T

 

Above is the output from the director on my system.

 

I have two different autoloaders – job 3673 is running on a DELL TL4000 and when I run another job for the same client using the other autoloader (PV132T), the job stalls waiting for the first job to finish.

 

Anyone got any clues what I may be doing wrong which is stopping the two jobs running concurrently?

 

The reasons I need this – say for example I run out of tapes on an Incremental Backup – I don’t want the Differential to be blocked on the other autoloader waiting for the incremental to finish.

 

Thanks

 

Brian.
