Abstract
A method for managing network attached storage (NAS) assets obtaining, by a backup manager, a backup request for backing up the NAS assets, in response to the backup request: determining a number of streams available to be performed in parallel by a set of backup agents, obtaining a set of slices associated with the NAS assets, performing a categorization on the set of slices based on metadata associated with the set of slices to obtain a set of batches, initiating a slice distribution of the set of slices to the set of backup agents based on the set of batches and the number of streams, and storing the set of slices in a backup storage system.
