Hi Kent,

one of the things I've only recently seen is that with Networker v6.1.3
the *client parallelism* value takes precedence over the savegroup
parallelism value. (I always thought that the group values would
over-ride the client values.. go figure)

Try increasing your client parallelism values. If that doesn't help,
when you're calling the savegrp command make sure you specify the "-N #"
option, where # is the number of sessions you want to run in the group.

HTH,
John
