Concurrently running catalog backups with other backups

You can schedule catalog backups to run concurrently with other backup types for the master server.

Make the following adjustments to ensure that the catalog backup can proceed while regular backup activity occurs:

  • Set the Maximum jobs per client value to greater than one. The property is found in the Global Attributes host properties for the master server.

    See Global Attributes properties.

  • Increase the Maximum concurrent jobs setting on the storage unit where the backups are sent.

    See Maximum concurrent jobs storage unit setting.
