Hi,
There are quite some factors that are limiting the number of streams to a StoreOnce server and store. Here's the list.
1. Physical server limit
An overall limit for the number of connections to one server is hardcoded to 100 per connection type (either data or command). This is for software servers. For hardware devices, this is typically 192 connections per node.
2. Device settings: Max. Number of Connections per Store
The device settings allow to set a maximum number of connections per store.
3. Gateway settings (Advanced): Max. Number of Parallel Streams per Client System
The advanced settings on a gateway allow to set a maximum number of parallel streams per client system.
4. Load balancing
The maximum value of the load balancing setting in the backup specification is another limiting factor.
5. Number of source objects
Obviously, there will never be more data streams than source objects backed up in parallel.
