I use a spool area to prevent shoe-shining during incremental and
differential backups.

But I also have one large backup which takes a very long time (for
Full backups). It seems to me as if this has become slower since I
introduced spooling.

I can read the source data at about 300MiB/s for a single-threaded
read worker. That's ample to keep an LTO-6 drive running.

How can I turn off spooling for the three backups jobs (one for each
FileSet for this machine) for this client, only when the backup is
"Full"?

Right now, I have "SpoolData = yes" in DefaultJob and all jobs use
that as their default job.


Thanks,
James.

Zitat von James Youngman <ja...@youngman.org>:
You can override with SpoolData=yes|no in the scheduler resource run command.
