Disabling Multiplex Restores

By default, the software enables multiplexed restores.

Consider the following case.

If you perform a Sybase backup operation that uses 4 streams, and there is an auxiliary copy operations that has multiplexing (combined restore data streams) enabled, then there will be multiple streams going to media. For example if multiplexing is set to a factor of 2, then there will be 4 streams going to 2 media.

If you restore from the secondary copy, then the Sybase server needs 4 streams, but the software uses 2 streams because of multiplexing, and the Sybase sever does not accept it. In this case, stage the job to local media, and then use the same number of streams.

You can disable this additional setting when you do not restore from a secondary copy that has combined streams.

Procedure

  • To the Sybase client, add the additional setting as shown in the following table.

    For instructions on how to add additional settings from the CommCell Console, see Add or Modify an Additional Setting.
