[Veritas-bu] Multistreaming from a single file system

2007-02-09 Thread Khurram Tariq

Hi,

Can we do multistreaming from one filesystem? I want to do this because the
subdirectories on a filesystem contains tens of thousands of small files and
the backup runs quite slowly (i'm sure of shoe shining too). The filesystem
is structured like this:

Mount point:
/abc/def
Sub directories:
/abc/def/one
/abc/def/two
/abc/def/three
/abc/def/misc

I want to backup directories one  two in separate streams and everything
else in the third stream. Will the following setting in the backup selection
work?

/abc/def/one
NEW_STREAM
/abc/def/two
NEW_STREAM
/abc/def
/abc/def/three
/abc/def/misc


Regards,
Khurram

Almost, but try this:

 

NEW_STREAM

/abc/def/one
NEW_STREAM
/abc/def/two
NEW_STREAM
/abc/def
/abc/def/three
/abc/def/misc

 

You should try it with the NEW_STREAM directive before every stream you
want.  Works for me that way.
