Namespace:  Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.Backup
Assembly:  Microsoft.SharePoint (in Microsoft.SharePoint.dll)

Syntax

Public Property BackupThreads As Integer
    Get
    Set

Dim instance As SPBackupSettings
Dim value As Integer

value = instance.BackupThreads

instance.BackupThreads = value
public int BackupThreads { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.Int32
A Int32 that represents the number of threads to use. The default is 1.

Remarks

BackupThreads must be set to a value from 1 to 6.

Setting BackupThreads to a value above 1 may make the spbackup.log file, which is located at Location, harder to read.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the BackupThreads property in a backup application. For the full example and a detailed discussion of it, see How to: Programmatically Back Up Content.

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    // Identify the location for the backup storage.
    Console.Write("Enter full UNC path to the directory where the backup will be stored:");
    String backupLocation = Console.ReadLine();
    
    // Create the backup settings.
    SPBackupSettings settings = SPBackupRestoreSettings.GetBackupSettings(backupLocation, "Full");

    // Identify the content component to backup.
    Console.Write("Enter name of component to backup (default is whole farm):");
    settings.IndividualItem = Console.ReadLine();
    
    // Set optional operation parameters.
    settings.IsVerbose = true;
    settings.UpdateProgress = 10;
    settings.BackupThreads = 2;

    // Create the backup operation and return its ID.
    Guid backup = SPBackupRestoreConsole.CreateBackupRestore(settings);

    // Ensure that user has identified a valid and unique component.
    SPBackupRestoreObject node = EnsureUniqueValidComponentName(settings, ref backup);

    // Ensure that there is enough space.
    Boolean targetHasEnoughSpace = false;
    if (node != null)
    {
        targetHasEnoughSpace = EnsureEnoughDiskSpace(backupLocation, backup, node);
    }

    // If there is enough space, attempt to run the backup.
    if (targetHasEnoughSpace)
    {
        // Set the backup as the active job and run it.
        if (SPBackupRestoreConsole.SetActive(backup) == true)
        {
            if (SPBackupRestoreConsole.Run(backup, node) == false)
            {
                // Report "error" through your UI.
                String error = SPBackupRestoreConsole.Get(backup).FailureMessage;
                Console.WriteLine(error);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            // Report through your UI that another backup
            // or restore operation is underway. 
            Console.WriteLine("Another backup or restore operation is already underway. Try again when it ends.");
        }

        // Clean up the operation.
        SPBackupRestoreConsole.Remove(backup);

        Console.WriteLine("Backup attempt complete. Press Enter to continue.");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}// end Main
