>From 1-999. It is detailed in the help documentation for "backup
stgpool". 

I strongly suggest that you give this careful consideration because as
you can use up to 999 processes, it may be limited by the resources you
have, such as number of tape drives, other processes that may be running
at the same time, etc.

The options is MAXPRocess=###

For example:

Backup stgpool primary_pool_name copy_pool_name maxprocess=4

Subject: [ADSM-L] how many parallel server-to-server sessions can be?

hello,

how many parallel server-to-server sessions can be opened, if you
start a "backup stgpool ..." process between source and target tsm
server?

and if, where are they defined?

with best regards
