\\:\D:

NEW_STREAM

\\:\E:

NEW_STREAM

\\:\F:

or

\\:\D:

\\:\E:

[rookie11]

please use :

\\:\D:

NEW_STREAM

\\:\E:

NEW_STREAM

\\:\F:

along with this also adjust VSS cache size on ur server. Please set client read and client timeout setting to maximum values

NEW_STREAM
\\:\D:

NEW_STREAM
\\:\E:

NEW_STREAM
\\:\F:

and

\\:\D:
\\:\E:
\\:\F:

Will do EXACTLY the same thing! 
3 separate streams. One for each volume.

No need for NEW_STREAM if you want each item to be in a separate stream with 'Allow multiple data streams' selected in the Policy Attributes.

NEW_STREAM is handy when you want to group 2 or more items into a single stream, e.g.:

NEW_STREAM
\\:\D:
\\:\E:

NEW_STREAM
\\:\F:

I am sure you can see that the above will generate 2 streams.
