Hello,

we're having problems with big jobs (1.8 - 6.8TB).

The copy job on main backup storage is about 9h30 but the copy job it's longer than 24h (6.8TB).

It's not a network or disk problem, 10Gbps on network enabled and tested, and 4Gpbs on raid storage with Synology RP2418+ on both sides, primary and secondary SD.

The problem with this big backup jobs is that they only get a maximum of 1Gbps when they are con a copy job.

If we've 4 or 6 jobs at a time the limitation is disk write, mechanical 7.2k rpms.

But when it's only a job, it does not get 2.2 - 2.4 Gbps that parallel jobs get, only 0.5 or max 0.6 Gbps.

So it's not a network or raid disk limit, it sounds more like a speed limit on the job. Both servers have Bareos v24, august 25 updated.

Reading documentation I've found the parameter Maximum Bandwidth Per Job on SD or Director but I did not found it on my servers configuration.

There's a default Maximum Bandwidth Per Job limitation? If it exists how to override it?

Thanks in advance,

Andrés
