Step 2.
The shell variable
NMEGS
determines how much data
the system can back up in one evening.
Step 3.
Every day, the script does a partial backup within a
manageable period of time (one evening) of a group
of volumes in a volume group.

of volumes in a volume group.
Therefore, if you can divide the AMASS file system
into 20 parts, the script can do a complete backup in
20 days.

The amount of data can exceed the capacity of one
