Hi John, first off thanks for your reply. It's it's indeed a limitation within bacula, then why do parallel backup jobs to the same disk volume work just fine? I really fail to grasp the difference here, maybe someone can enlighten me? Is it the "different parts of the same volume" bit that bites me? I assume parallel write jobs would simply be streamed to the volume, while parallel reads aren't possible?
