Multistreaming

[Twinkle_Sapra]

I have a file server having 3 drives.

C:\

D:\

E:\

i want to implement mulitistreaming , a new stream directive for each drive.I have a doubt before implementing it.

As the backup will start i have only 2 tape-drives will available ( total of 3 tape-drives ).One more backup is going on during this time on remaining 1 tape-drive.

I have following doubts

Either the backup of fileserver will start  for 2 drives on available 2 tape-drives?

3rd stream will wait for completion of currrent backup going on ?

Here is how to:

What is Multistreaming and how is it turned on?

3 jobs will be created... 2 will be running, the third job will queue for an available drive.
