NetBackup™ for VMware Administrator's Guide

Limiting concurrent CDP backup jobs

You can set a limit for the simultaneous CDP snapshot jobs that can run on the CDP gateway at a time. For example, if you protect 20 VMs and you set a limit of 5, then only 5 VMs can run simultaneous backups, and 15 VMs stay in queue. This setting is required for optimized use of your system and network resources. By default, the resource limit value is 0, representing no limit.
