Is there any way to ensure that a problem backing up a particular client in a savegroup will not prevent the savegroup from ending when the backups all the other clients in that savegroup finish? The

The only way to do this is to run a script daily from cron that will then create "at" jobs to kill any running group 5 minutes before they are due to start again. I actually have such a script, it al

If you ask the team here what our Number One NetWorker Problem is, this is it. We experience hung savegroups every day, mostly in our larger data zones. As Davina said, the only "solution" is to kill

Hi, Davina, You're right; a savegroup switch would be desirable; however, it should be more "intelligent" than just an on/off "kill savegroup if already running?" sort of thing. You might, for exampl

So why don't you split the Window's boxes out into their own savegroup? And if you have problematic ones, split them out into their own savegroup as well. It's not bad having multiple savegroups, tho

All that would do is prevent Windows boxes from hanging Unix systems. The Windows boxes would still hang each other, and the occasional Unix failure would still hang the group. The problem is very in
