| I now have the case where a script on a database server is going to
execute a 'save' command to inititate a backup. This save command will
use whatever group I want. I believe that, if this save commands
executes at the same time as my nightly backups, but uses a different
group, I will have the problem described in this note thread.
However, if I use the same group in both the script-originated save
command and the NetWorker Server-originated save commands, will
everything work well?
Thanks!

| If you really meen group, then only one instance of a group will
run at a time. It creates a lock file the prevents the same group
from being started again. This is using scheduled starts, starting
a group from the GUI, or running the savegrp command.
You can't mix start methods without risking overlapping groups and
the possible problems that concurent groups may cause.
Pools are a whole different story.

Gotcha. But what if I run a save (not savegrp) command? Will this
'join' an already running savegroup, or be blocked by the lock file
until the already running savegroup of the same name completes?
Thanks!

| Manual saves run independantly and have no relationship to
any group. It doesn't matter what names are used.
The manual save will act just like another single stream
save group was started and the server will just stall any
sessions greater the 'max para'.

| You can run as many ad-hoc saves at one time as want. They won't
"join" any savegroups though, they'll just be another save running.
However, you could run into problems with this if you have a savegroup
running that expects to use up the parrallelism. See notes on
overlapping savegroups for explanation.

| This, indeed, would be a problem for us. I'll make sure that the
script-scheduled saves do not run at the same time as our NetWorker
Server-scheduled saves.
Thanks very much for this clarification!
