Maximum number of backup sets per Backup-toDisk file:
Say you are backing up 'C:' and 'D:' drives on computer 'server1', then you have 2 backup sets.
Likewise if you are backing up 'C:' drive and 'information store' on computer 'server2', then you have 2 backup sets.
So 'Maximum number of backup sets per Backup-toDisk file' means the number of backup sets that can be written to a Backup-toDisk file after which the next backup set shall be written to the next Backup-toDisk file even though the maximum size of the Backup-toDisk file has not been reached.
Disk Space reserve:
It is the amount of disk space (from the total anmount of disk space available on the hard drive) that backup exec "won't use".
It is the disk space reserved for applications other then Backup Exec.
You don't mention the append period and what kind of job is it (append or overwrite) ?
