It actually is a pain to manage, but I've just gotten feed up with one
client that hangs an entire group and then it doesn't run the next
night.

Since I have an entry for the server in each group(for index retention
length purposes) it does actually put quite a load on the server.  I'm
trying to decide what I'm going to do about that.  It runs 600+
bootstraps a night which cause the server to not respond at times.  I'm
considering moving the indexes to another pool so that I don't have to
worry about the retention time causing my media to not recycle.

By your response, I take it you use large groups.  Do you not have
problems with hanging clients?  How do you handle your indexes?

Thanks!

Joel

Just out of curiosity, why would you use a single group per client?
That seems like a lot of trouble and effort to manage, plus it creates a
lot of added overhead on the NetWorker server, unless you happen
to manage a very small NetWorker data zone.
