Hi Bill, You are correct,, I can see the MaximumConcurrentJobs limitation, see the "status dir" output from bconsole below: So how to we enhance this limit for the Restore jobs

Yateen, Again, you only need *one* Restore Job defined, even if you are going to run 1,000 restores at the same time. Show us the problem you are experiencing so we can direct you to the right solution. I am guessing you are more than likely running into some "MaximumConcurrentJobs" bottleneck somewhere. I mean, show us a Director that is running (or trying to run) multiple restore jobs at the same time: * status dir Best regards, Bill -- Bill Arlofski waa@pro tonmail.com _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
