Running 11.36.72 

Started noticing jobs for the same storage policy where we have plenty of a certain number of streams available but readers are distributed sometimes to a single job while the other jobs part of the same storage policy go to a Waiting state. Most of the time I have noticed this with Full and incremental go waiting.

Screenshot below shows all running (same stg policy) at the moment, but we can see the discrepancy between the job readers. How do I make sure that these are better distributed? 

  • Eanble stream randomization for backup is enabled
  • Distribute data evenly among multiple strams is also enable
