Question for all you dumpers.

[Fozzie]

Can you safely run multiple uploads from one machine?

I tried it a long time ago when I was just starting and had one full gen go 910 on me.

From your experience was this a fluke or can you only upload one machine's output at a time.

I see Condor's uberdumps and I am wondering how he got such a large throughput in the hour provided. (no toilet humour required )

Cheers

i don't normally do that , but i have at times

on the long holiday weekends when i run hundreds of clients remotely, after i retrieve the client folders, i have to get them all sent, so i often run 3-5 per pc that is connected to the internet. when i have done this i haven't run into any problems specific to doing that

I'll try it tonight with 2 smaller dumps.

I have never had a problem running multiples from one machine.

What I do is map a drive to other machines and upload from the network drive.
I find it much easier than copying back and forth or even going to another machine.

when i do a big dump, i have another client running in the background, doing mini dumps when it finishes each gen, while the main client is uplaoding all its structs(if this makes sense), and have never had any problems </touch wood>
