HI Team,

 

we are getting below error when SQL job scheduler run

 

Description: Another backup is running for client [zucnlifdbmfoctn], iDataAgent [SQL Server], Instance [zucnlifdbmfoctn], Subclient [default].
Source: zucpgtssvcvcsm1, Process: JobManager

@kumar , is the job getting that error NOW or did it happen earlier (perhaps when other jobs were running)?

You can enable this option:

Control Panel > Job Management > General tab, select Queue jobs if other conflicting jobs are active

This will cause these jobs to queue up until the previous job(s) complete.

If you have a question or comment, please create a topic

@kumar , check the job controller (filter by this client name) and see if another job for the same subclient is running.

the newer job will resume once the prior job completes.
