Specifying storage node load balancing

By default, NetWorker balances client backups across storage nodes that are based on the Max sessions attribute for each device on the storage node. If you choose to balance storage node loads by Max sessions, you can override this setting for selected clients.

  1. On the Administration window, click the Server button.
  2. From the View menu, select Diagnostic Mode.
  3. Right-click the NetWorker server in the left pane, and select Properties.
  4. On the General tab, select a value from the Save session distribution list:
    • If you select Target sessions, then the NetWorker server balances the backups for all NetWorker clients across the storage nodes, based on device target session value. The NetWorker server ignores the value that is defined in Save session distribution attribute for each NetWorker client.
    • If you select Max sessions, then you can still override this value for selected NetWorker client resources by setting the Save session distribution attribute in the client resource.
  5. Click OK.
