Multiple backup jobs to disk

hello, 
Can Backup Exec run multiple simultaneous backups to a single disk or does it stagger jobs so one finishes then the next starts?
 
Thanks

Hi Steve,

It can actually do that.
What you would look at doing is creating B2D folders per job you want to run, and then point the jobs to specific folders. That's how I would do it to keep things logical.
You can point everything to 1 B2D folder, and there is a setting when you create the folder to allow multiple streams to it.
From my side, I'd prefer to keep a specific job pointed to a specific folder.
Hope this helps, but give a shout if you need further help!

Laters!
