Like I said in a previous post, I was seeing a lot of conflicting information going around about NetWorker with regard to cloning and multiplexing. Even I wasn't sure anymore how it worked. Does it p

According to the release notes for 7.3.2 Networker can now read multiple concurrent streams from an advanced file type device, but only write one at the time. I actually tested this some time ago an

Correct on all counts. NetWorker writes to disk as disk, using the AFTD, so you could max out your parallelism, (how many streams are actually sent at the same time), creating heavily multiplexed bac

When cloning from disk to tape (using Networker file/adv_file devices) the save sets are always de-multiplexed. Do these results apply when cloning from disk backup to tape? Do these results apply wh

I'm not sure what you're saying that NetWorker can do. Are you saying: * that NW will take a series of backups that were backed up to an advanced file type device, and then multiplex them together wh
You certainly did. I was just objecting to the fact that Davina said that Networker by design cannot do concurrent reads from disk as this limitation was removed in 7.3 up. Try to recover two or mor

Oh, so you're saying that NW can RECOVER two things at the same time. That's cool. It appears from the release notes that this only applies to command line recoveries: "AFTD function now supports al

Hi Curtis, It wouldn't be the first time to have poorly written documentation :-) I believe that what this may be referring to is the capability of allowing clients to do restores without being stora
