Re: [Networker] Recomennded concurrent groups.

On FULL backup weekends, we easily have more than 3 groups, and can have
as many as 7 or 8 groups running at the same time.   Not the best
practice, as you can see a significant issue in regards to system
resources on the backup server.  I find that older machines have more of
an issue than newer hardware.

Subject: [Networker] Recomennded concurrent groups.

Hello all,

   Recently, I discussed my nsrjobd issues with my support engineer and 
after he inspected daemon.log, he said that running more than three 
groups at the same time is against EMC's best practice and that if he 
will try to open a case with EMC, I will need to run less than three 
groups at the same time before they will start looking into the problem.

Luckily, he found esg93651 so there is no need to "fix" the parallel 
groups problem. I can have as much as ten groups at a time and  I 
wonder, how many groups other people are running concurrently ?

   Also, can someone point me at this best practice guide which suggests

to limit the number of groups?
