VMS Help  —  BACKUP  Qualifiers  /IO_LOAD
       /IO_LOAD[=n]

    Beginning in OpenVMS Version 8.3, BACKUP is optimized to work
    more efficiently with new storage controllers. You can use
    the /IO_LOAD qualifier to increase or decrease the number of
    simultaneous I/Os issued by the BACKUP utility. The default is 8
    I/Os. The minimum is 2 I/Os.

    If the /IO_LOAD qualifier is omitted from the command line, the
    default number of outstanding I/Os is still 8.
