Client Max Jobs: Master server vs client specific setting. Which wins?

Title is quite self explanatory, I believe.

I will probably want to keep the limit of backup jobs for my clients, with the exception of one particular server which takes forever to perform full backups, for which I want to increase this to 4 or 6.

Question is, if the master server setting is 3 but the client setting is 5, which one will win?

Thanks

    The technote above mentions clearly

     

    Note: This setting will override the maximum jobs settings on both the policy and the master server level.

    It certainly does!

     

    Shows how easy it is to get out of touch with the 'niceties' of NetBackup....

    Thanks guys, I already have opened that doc on a tab but I missed the footer note...

    It makes sense, the more specific the higher priority the setting should have.
