Multiplexing and OST

Hello

 

How do I make sure that I am not Multiplexing with OST, DDBOOST?

 

On the Storage Unit I see no multipexing option but there is one in the schedule attribute. Given the wording it seems that Mutiplexig it's only honoured/applied with Media Manager/Tapes storage-units but it's not spelled out anywhere.

 

 

Thanks

    Multiplexing is for tape only.

    There used to be a way to trigger it with disk, but required a very deep configuration change that is not readily accessable and AFAIK, no-one has attempted to use in the last decade since it serves almost no purpose.

    There is simply no need to mutilplex with disk, so it does not.
