They are running bpbackup with -f option and the backup finished
successfully... So, it must be schedule with type USER :)

NBU 3.4
SunOS 5.8 Generic_108528-18 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise-10000 How
can I concurrently write to multiple tape drives when running bpbackup
using the -f filelist parameter.
>From Unix Korn shell script the following command is being issued:
        /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpbackup -w -c inv_sys_dbbkup -s
daily_full -L dbbkup.log -f dirlist_for_db.dat The dirlist_for_db.dat
file contains a list of directories where the related database file
reside: /dbf/dbredo01/ind1b/ /dbf/dbredo02/ind1b/ /dbf/dbredo03/ind1b/
/dbf/dbredo04/ind1b/ /dbf/ua09/ind1b/ /dbf/ua10/ind1b/ /dbf/ua11/ind1b/
/dbf/ua12/ind1b/ When this backup is executed it uses a single stream
writing to one tape drive. Is there a way to get this backup to
concurrently write multiple streams to more than one tape drive at a
time? Excuse my ignorance. I'm a DBA and do not have access to any
NetBackup manuals. The backup team that is responsible for this tells me
there is no way to do this. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
