The director and the storage daemon are both 1.38.8 (it's the same server).
The clients are on versions from 1.38.2 to 1.38.8.

Right now I'm running another test backup - from 120 jobs run in parallel 118
jobs finished OK and 2 jobs are in a strange state that will likely result in
the problem described above:

Unfortunately, I don't know how to find out what the system is doing right now
in more detail but it seems it does not do anything.
