Hello Katbert!

Thank you for opening the thread regarding this question! I understand your concern and will be glad to help you.

Unfortunately there are no such options in the backup plan settings yet (but I will forward a request to the Development team in a moment), so in order to succeed you need to do the following: 

Schedule a separate task for each machine, changing the timeframe to differ for a minute or two.

The thing is that our Scheduler is designed in a such a way that it cannot process 2 backup plans simultaneously. Thus in case you set 2 backup tasks to run in one time or with 1 minute difference, the Scheduler will process the first one and stall the second one. As soon as the first one is processed, the second task will be executed.

Should you need anything else or have any further questions - feel free to contact us at your earliest convenience, we will be happy to help you!

Thank you!
