Hi Arno,
I added the "Max Wait Time = 900" in the jobDefs section of the firector
file. But last night again due to some error bacula got stuck on the firsdt
client and never moved on. I have a complex backup infrastructure, and i
really want that if one client cannot be backed up regardless of whatever
the error is, bacula should move to the next client. I hope I am not missing
out something.
Thanks and Regards

Hmm. I'm unsure... there was some problem with these times a while ago
where it didn't honor the time units, but also didn't abort with an
error when parsing the configuration. I think this as been fixed, though.
I'm using, for example, "Max Start Delay = 23h" and this works as
expected.
If unsure, simply don't use a qualifier like 'hours' and Bacula will
interpret your numbers as seonds.
So, '300' should be identical to '5 min'.

Yes.
