Hi,

Does anyone have any information on how best to set up target sessions?

We have a Compaq ES40 running networker 6.1.1 saving to a Compaq ESL9326
storage array with 8 drives.  We have one backup that is ~375G and takes a
long time.  The parallelism is set to 16.  Yesterday, I changed the target
sessions on each drive to 16 from 12.  It seems that *all* the backups are
taking much longer now.  In the manual, it says that in most cases writes
are faster when they are all going to one tape so I don't understand the
hold up.

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jody
