One of my Bacula servers backs up 18 clients. Many of these have a lengthy ClientRunBeforeJob. (SVN hot backups, database dumps, Windows system state backups - you get the picture.) As a consequence, more than half of the elapsed time of my nightly backup runs is actually spent waiting for one of the clients to complete its Before job while everything else sits idle.
How are others handling this situation? Any smart ideas how to get the before jobs to run in parallel, preferably keeping the actual writing to tape sequential? aTdHvAaNnKcSe Tilman -- Tilman Schmidt Phoenix Software GmbH Bonn, Germany
