Background documentation Group of Parallel Backup Media Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

You can use multiple backup media to  back up in parallel or to restore from parallel backup media. For this purpose you define a group of parallel backup media that is identified by a single, grouped media name.

Parallel backup media are simultaneously written or read by the database instance. This increases data throughput - and thus the speed of backup or restore.

The general database parameter MAXBACKUPDEVS specifies the maximum possible number of files or tape devices in a group of parallel backup media.
