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
