Maximum Data Streams

The Maximum Data Streams property specifies that there is a maximum number of concurrent data streams allowed for the clients selected in the General tab of the Client Attributes dialog.

To change the setting, select Maximum Data Streams, then scroll to or enter a value up to 99.

Maximum Data Streams interacts with the Maximum Jobs Per Client (Host Properties > Master Server > Global Attributes) and Limit Jobs Per Policy (a policy setting) as follows:

• If Maximum Data Streams is not set, the limit is either Maximum Jobs Per Client or Limit Jobs Per Policy, whichever is lower.
• If Maximum Data Streams is set, NetBackup ignores Maximum Jobs Per Client and uses either Maximum Data Streams or Limit Jobs Per Policy, whichever is lower.

This property appears for the clients of currently selected master servers only.
