Re: [Networker] Multiple Advanced File device

Hi Joel,

It is set to zero. Do I need to change that value ? If so I assume I need to do 
the same for all my groups...

My server parallelist is presently set to 48. PS: I have also two storage node 
backing up on tapes and disks apart from my Adf_file device...

Thanks !

Hi,

I set the target sessions a 1, and it only started 1 sessions per
devices. I though it would start more after it start 1 on each
devices... Am I missing something ?

Thanks !

Richard
