A few weeks ago I created a policy whose file list looked like the 
following:

/a/b/x/*.gz
/a/c/x/*.gz
/a/d/x/*.gz
/a/d/e/x/*.gz

The next morning I learned the meaning of Auto-discover Streaming Mode. 
  I had set the Allow Multiple Data Streams attribute for the policy but 
did not have any NEW_STREAM directives.  This resulted in 1170 
single-file jobs.  Lesson learned.

Now, based on my reading of the NBU DC 4.5 Sys Admin's Guide (page 106), 
adding NEW_STREAM directives (as shown below), even though there are 
wild cards, should cause three streams should be generated.

NEW_STREAM
/a/b/x/*.gz
NEW_STREAM
/a/c/x/*.gz
NEW_STREAM
/a/d/x/*.gz
/a/d/e/x/*.gz

Can anyone confirm this before I go shooting myself in the foot again?

Regards,

Justin
