Vmmaxrestoreparalleldisks
The vmmaxrestoreparalleldisks option enables an IBM Spectrum Protectâ„¢ client to restore specific multiple virtual disks at the same time per virtual machine.
You can specify the number of disk sessions to be opened, up to a maximum of 10. Sessions are allocated per disk based on the transport type from the option vmvstortransport. Available sessions are allocated across the number of disk sessions specified by vmmaxrestoreparalleldisks, by rounding down the number of sessions per disk to the nearest whole number.
