@abdullahalhabbash,

The number of concurrent searches for a user is defined by srchJobsQuota in Authorizeconf . For normal user its 3 by default and for role_admin it was around 50 (check in your authorize.conf in defaualt folder)

srchJobsQuota = <number>
* Maximum number of concurrently running historical searches a member of   this role can have.
* This excludes real-time searches, see rtSrchJobsQuota.
* Defaults to 3.

Also look at the cumulativeSrchJobsQuota

cumulativeSrchJobsQuota = <number>
* Maximum number of concurrently running historical searches in total
  across all members of this role
* Requires enable_cumulative_quota = true in limits.conf to take effect.
* If a user belongs to multiple roles, the user's searches count against 
  the role with the largest cumulative search quota. Once the quota for 
  that role is consumed, the user's searches count against the role with 
  the next largest quota, and so on.
* In search head clustering environments, this setting takes effect on a 
  per-member basis. There is no cluster-wide accounting.
