It actually is a pain to manage, but I've just gotten feed up with one

Since I have an entry for the server in each group(for index retention
length purposes) it does actually put quite a load on the server. I'm
trying to decide what I'm going to do about that. It runs 600+
bootstraps a night which cause the server to not respond at times.
I'm
considering moving the indexes to another pool so that I don't have to
worry about the retention time causing my media to not recycle.
By your response, I take it you use large groups. Do you not have
problems with hanging clients? How do you handle your indexes?
I let NetWorker handle the index backups, but once a day, I also do a
"savegrp -O" against every client, just as a safety precaution.
As for stalled savegroups, I suggest a better way to deal with that
problem (until Legato actually fixes it), is to review your running
savegroups in nwadmin each morning and simply kill off the ones that
have stalled, or write a shell script to do it.
