Hi community,

I am running backups of multiple database servers and each backup job is defined with "RunScript" command that dumps the databases on each particular server and these dumps are then taken for backups.

The dumps take different times on each server - minutes to couple of hours. Since the dumping doesn't involve bacula storage daemon I want another jobs to be running in parallel that can be sending data to storage while the db servers are dumping the databases. Also the database dumps can be running in parallel instead of sequentially as that's purely local matter.

I've increased the "Maximum Concurrent Jobs" in "Director" resource but I can still see only one job running at a time. I don't think I want to increase this as well in "Storage" resource and definitely not in the "Job" resource.

What am I missing here?

...running bacula 5.2

thx,

Antony.
