How to set maximum jobs per client by command line?

Hi,

I want to set two parameters using a linux script:

1. On Master: maximum jobs per client

2. For a media server : scalable storage/ Maximum concurrent jobs

How?

Thanks

    There are 2 places where Max Jobs per Client can be set:

    Global setting (apllicable to all clients) : bpconfig command
    Individual client setting: bpclient command.

    Maximum concurrent jobs on disk storage is done on Storage Unit level: 
    bpsturep -label <STU-name> -cj <max_jobs>

    Then there is also a Max IO setting at Diskpool level:
    nbdevconfig -changedp  -stype <server_type> -dp <disk_pool_name> -max_io_streams <n>

    See NetBackup Commands Reference Guide  for details.

    Hey

    For first point it will be bpconfig -mj xx see this site and below excerpt from it:

    "-mj number

    Specifies the maximum jobs per client. This number is the maximum number of jobs that a client can perform concurrently. It must be a positive integer. The range values are 1 to 32767. The default value is 1."

    for second point - I do not follow what is being required...

      I guess its /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpclient -client testnb1 -max_jobs 20
