About multi-host backup

Starting with NetBackup 10.4, you can back up a single NAS volume using multiple hosts from the backup host pool specified in the D-NAS policy. This multi-host backup capability, makes a single NAS volume accessible from multiple backup hosts. NetBackup can use a higher number of backup streams, across multiple hosts for backing up large NAS volumes. This significantly improves the performance of the NAS backups.
