You need to increase "Maximum Concurrent Jobs" in the Client resource in bacula-dir.conf to prevent "is waiting on max Client jobs". It defaults to 1. > I also am confused about the spool directive.

The "Maximum Spool Size" is the size per spool file, so you will use up to 500GB. Does your 2 way mirror have enough throughput to feed 5 LTO3 drives simultaneously (or even 1 drive with 4 other jobs simultaneously writing to their spool files)? __Martin _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
