Hi,
Paul, i notice you are using back level client vs your server, is 
upgrading to 7.4.2 client an option for you.
Have you broken up the saveset idevedually , i.e C:\TEMP,C:\Windows  or 
are you using ALL ? Are any other groups running within the backup 
interval and what is the availability of Devices\target sessions ?
I would expect the client to take a bit longer then the rest as  it's 
large file system.
Thanks

Subject
Client/Group not using full parallelism






I have one client in a group that does not seem to be following either
the client or the group parallelism. Server is 7.4.2 sp2 running on
Win2k3 server. Client is Win2k3 server with 7.2 client. The group
parallelism is set to 18, the client is set to 4, but only one session
at a time seems to run on this client after all other clients in the
group have completed. This client is a large file server with many small
files that always seems to finish last in the group. I want it to be
running at least 4 sessions whenever possible. It's currently streaming
only 1 session with 5 more partitions to go.. Which will take all day
due to the larger sizes of the partitions (35-50 GB each). Is there a
way I get it to reach the desired parallelism to increase the throughput
??

Regards,

Paul
