Running Windows Server 2003 (Enterprise) Fully Patched
BE 11d Fully Patched.
Tape library is an HP 4 chassis MSL6030 with 8 SDLT600 drives.
Using the Symantec drivers for the drives.
I don't understand why, if I start multiple jobs, one will start and assign a drive.
The other jobs will stall with a "Ready, no idle devices available" message until the first one completes it's snapshot processing.
This is seriously impacting my ability to get backups done in the available window.
Any idea as to how to make better use of my resources???
Thanks in advance.
