Hi Silvio,it looks like we missed some places in the documentation when we deprecated those options. Just to clarify: We only deprecated the `Fd- >Client` and `Sd->Storage` options. We did not deprecate the `Sd- >Device` option.The idea is that previously you could e.g. define `MaximumConcurrentJobs` both in `Dir->Storage` and `Sd->Storage` and it would basically always take the minimum of the two for the actual `MaximumConcurrentJobs` value. This basically meant that you had to keep both those values in sync or you would get unexpected results. In an effort to make our configuration less confusing we decided to set the `Sd->Storage` and `Fd->Client` options to 10000, so that you only ever need to configure it on the director.We plan to remove these deprecated options completely sooner or later unless we find a good reason to not do so.To answer your question: If you set `MaximumConcurrentJobs` (Dir- >Storage) to some value, then the storage daemon will run up to that many jobs in parallel. If you want multiple jobs to be able to write to the same device at the same time, you can set `MaximumConcurrentJobs` (Sd->Device) -- this option is not deprecated. Take the warning at https://docs.bareos.org/Configuration/ StorageDaemon.html#config-Sd_Device_MaximumConcurrentJobs into account though. For most device types its better to define multiple of them, each only allowing up to one job, instead of just one allowing multiple jobs at the same time.I hope this clears some things up!

What surprises me is that the option is marked as deprecated for both the client and the storage daemon. However, the documentation still lists this option for the storage daemon and multiple storage devices for disc based backups.https://docs.bareos.org/TasksAndConcepts/ VolumeManagement.html#concurrentdiskjobsSo if I disable this option, can I only write to one device at a time? This would mean that parallel backups from different systems would no longer work or long-running backups would block other backups.Best Silvio Am 16.12.24 um 06:44 schrieb Sebastian Sura:Hi Silvio,you might be looking at the wrong option. https://docs.bareos.org/ Configuration/FileDaemon.html#config-Fd_Client_MaximumConcurrentJobs is marked as deprecated. Regarding "use this instead": Use the options in the director instead, i.e. https://docs.bareos.org/ Configuration/ Director.html#config-Dir_Client_MaximumConcurrentJobsIts definitely a good idea to mention & exlpain this in the client/ storage documentation. Ill create a task for this. Thanks for your report.Kind Regards, Sebastian Sura Am 13.12.24 um 16:38 schrieb Silvio Schloeffel:Hi, after the upgrade I received this message:using deprecated keyword MaximumConcurrentJobs on line 3 of file / etc/ bareos/bareos-fd.d/client/myself.confIt is only a warning so I checked the documentation for a replacement info:https://docs.bareos.org/Configuration/Director.html#storage-resource and found nothing regarding deprecated or "use this instead".Will the documentation for this keyword be changed or is it just an indication that something will be changed in the distant future?Best Silvio
