Hi,
Unfortunately yes I got some problems recently but now I have
reduced the number of jobs to 10 and on 2 occassions when I did raise the
jobs to 20 Dir crashed or hanged at night don't know why. I do use SMP in
both DIR and SD. Since from today I implemented network bonding I am going
to increase the jobs to 40 let's see what happens tonight. Regarding FileSet
I guess having wildfile = *.mp3 or File = *.mp3 will do the same job. Maybe
I should upgrade both DIR and SD to 1.37 as using a CVS version on
production system won't be a good idea I guess.
