By default, restore operation uses a single stream. For faster restore operations, you can configure the restore operation to use multiple streams, and you can define alternate data paths. For more information, see GridStor® (Alternate Data Paths) - Overview.
Notes:
-
You cannot use multiple streams for restore operations on clients with only File System Core package installed (Laptop Backup clients).
-
You cannot use multiple streams for restoring systems state backups.
Before You Begin
-
Verify that you have v11 Service Pack 6 or later installed on the source client computers and on the destination client computers.
-
Verify that the client computer whose data you want to restore was backed up using Indexing Version 2. For more information about Indexing Version 2, see Indexing Version 2: Overview.
