Increase parallelism in Networker with subfolders
Hi all.
I've a situation like this:
A directory /oracle/XYZ with some subfolders:
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryA
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryB
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryC
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryD
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryE
...
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryL
If I specify only the directory /oracle/XYZ backup takes a long time.
To make the backup faster I can specify all multiple subdirectory, but in this way if I add a new directory on the server and I forget it in the saveset list i will not backup the directory added.
I would ask you if there is a way to specify as savesets something like:
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryA
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryB
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryC
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryD
- /oracle/XYZ/directoryE
- any other subdirectory of /oracle/XYZ/ not yet specified...
In this way I would be safe to not forget to save any data!
Thank you very much in advace.

I see two ways to solve this:
1) Use client initiated backup. Create a script that will list the folders name and use that as a parameter to the save command.
2) Create two client instances. One will have the folders you know, and the other one will have /oracle/XYZ/ and a directive to skip all the folders that you have in the first instance. So when you realize there's a new folder, you'll have to add that to the first instance, and include in the directive of the second client.
I believe someone might have better ideas, but those two should work
