This is oracle database backup and multistream at client side is set to 4.

The Maximum jobs per client value is set to 10. Strange thing is not even the 
single stream/job of this client is active when the backup is started all of 
them are queued for 1 or 2 hours before they become active. 

This client is hosted on solaris and there are two database running on single 
physical server and both of the database hava seperate logical hostname and are 
registered seperately on Netbackup. Logically they should be treated as 
different clients(?)

Is there any kind of tracing we can enable on client to have some extra details 
which may help?

Thanks,
Sushil
