Yes, you can multithread the backups in a different way. Create another nodename, a second dsm.opt file using that nodename, and include and exclude lines like (assuming there are two NetWare volumes sys: and vol1: dsm.opt copy1 nodename nwmachine-a exclude *:/.../* include sys:/.../* dsm.opt copy2 nodename nwmachine-b exclude *:/.../* include vol1:/.../* This can be done with three or more volumes as well. You can then easily create two threads for your backups (and your restores) without the use of resourceutilization, multiple mount points, etc. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) IBM Certified Advanced Deployment Professional Tivoli Storage Management Solutions 2005 IBM Certified Advanced Technical Expert (CATE) AIX Office 262.521.5627
