Hi Stan,

There will become very difficult to manage if I have a lot of groups. My
intention is to kill one or two saveset if they exceeded the backup window
but I want to have those successful saveset backup indexes, don't care about
whether the group is completed or not. because I still can do recovery base
on successful savesets indexes.

cheers...

If you have restart for that group set to a positive value, you'll need to
kill the saveset process until you exceed the value of the restart field.
A better way to do this is to put each of this client's savesets into a
separate client entry with its own group. That way, if you want to kill a
saveset, you just use nwadmin or nsradmin to stop the group for that
particular client entry.
