Keith,
the difference is that you are using pre-defined volumes - which the doc
says will be used in alphabetical order - see the worked example at the
bottom of the technote (steps 1 - 8 ). The true round-robin across
directories only works when using scratch volumes (that are auto-created
Here's another NFS based dedup box question . . .

There is a simple fix : copy the dscenu.txt file from a machime without the
problem. the other
Hello,

for our daily backups. But we beleive it can handle backup copies for offsite
media. So, we need to a new backup device. We thought about EMC datadomain and
IBM Protectier dedup device but they were
