Well, the old saying is, never say never... There are exceptions to what I said. Generally you only need to set resourceutilization to = volumes +1. However, what if you're backing up 2 volumes, sys: & vol1: , but have 5 tape drives available in your library? To do multi-session restores (u

The only thing in the dsm.opt that jumps out at me is the MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP. That will definitely slow down backups, and should only be used if the client being backed up really is memory-deficient. The other thing is, RESOURCEUTILIZATION tends to have dimishing returns. I've found that
