Error description
IBM Spectrum Protect Plus for Microsoft Exchange will update the input.json in job log scheduler in the enablelogbackup or disablelogbackup command. In the original code, we did not synchronize the enablelogbackup / disablelogbackup commands. So if multiple enablelogbackup /disablelogbackup commands invoked on same scheduler at same time, the input.json of this scheduler may be corrupted.
Local fix
For enablelogbackup problem, user can modify the log backup start time or frequency on GUI, run backup job, modify the start time or frequency back, run backup job again. This will correct the input.json of scheduler. For disablelogbackup problem, user can try to enable logbackup of the databases with different start time or frequency, run backup job, then disabble lobackup for these databases and run backup job again. This will correct the input.json of scheduler.

Problem conclusion
When multiple enablelogbackup / disablelogbackup commands modify same logbackup scheduler at same time, the input.json of the logbackup scheduler may be corrupted. To fix this, we need to synchronize the enablelogbackup / disablelogbackup commands.
