RE: Agents are not running as per scedule ~Bill Quetfoochekakol 24.Jan.04 11:13 AM a Web browser Domino Administrator 6.0.2 CF1AIX
Your observation is correct. Although this is not documented in Admin help, the number of concurrent agents are always restricted to one per database.
I believe that this restriction is imposed to prevent multiple agents from interfering with each other, operating on the same documents, causing save conflicts etc. Mind you, since Lotus doesn't document the restriction, let alone explain why it applies, we can't know for sure.
Frequently, though, it doesn't help much on performance to run processes (agents) in parallel, since they just run slower, thus causing the overall elapsed time to be similar. Try looking for ways to optimize. Small modifications (such as not saving documents whose values haven't changed) often improves performance by a factor 2-10.
