Snap Creator two jobs at the same time failed

Hi,

we run the Snap Creator for VMware Backups. When the Snap Creator starts two or more jobs at the same time (every day 0:00) some jobs failed with the error:

ERROR: SCF-00066: Agent validation failed for [10.79.3.200:9050] with error [Connection refused: connect].

but the other jobs run without problems. All jobs use the same agent.

Is it posible that the agent can handle only one job at the same time?

just try to help..

could you try to separate the jobs into 2-3 batches? like 2-3 jobs every 5 minutes untill all have been submitted?

it might be due to too many jobs at sam time, your agent can't respond back asap.

thanks

Jeff
