Hi all,

I wonder if someone can assist me with the folllowing:
I would like to multistream a single directory ( Window) that contain millions  of small fies.

PS:  The idea solution is to use Flashbakup to achieve it

Many thanks in advance

 Wat do you mean here.

Yes you can use flash backup that will do better for backing up millions of files and you can enable allow multiple stream option to go for streamed backup jobs.

I posted this in this forum not too long ago. here is the encore :)

I have a client that I setup 10 policies to backup the files. I used the telephone keypad as a model

Policy_0
   D:\dept\0*

Policy_1
   D:\dept\1*

Policy_2
   NEW_STREAM
   D:\dept\2*
   NEW_STREAM
   D:\dept\A*
   NEW_STREAM
   D:\dept\B*
   NEW_STREAM
   D:\dept\C*

Policy_3
   NEW_STREAM
   D:\dept\2*
   NEW_STREAM
   D:\dept\D*
   NEW_STREAM
   D:\dept\E*
   NEW_STREAM
   D:\dept\F*

and so on.....

I needed to break them up into separate policies so that I could split up the full backups throughout the week. Otherwise the 2.5TB of data would take too long to do it at one time
