I am trying to download the same release on two different indexer. On one indexer (NzbGeek) the file eventually fails during the par checks (it says something like not enough par-blocks, 32 block(s) needed, but 10 block(s) available.) but when I use the other indexer, I see it actually uses my backup servers (pic) and is able to repair the file fine.

  1. Why is one indexer failing and the other one is fine?
  2. Why did the first indexer not use my backup server?
