I have a requirement to restore databases using FB.&nbsp; The list of databases can be from 1 to many and the names of the databases will vary.&nbsp; If the db names and the number of db's remained the same, it would be easy to setup an Asynch Action Group and I could also set the Thread Limit down to a number that wouldn't swamp the server's I/O.&nbsp;&nbsp; Any suggestions for how I could create a variable list of restore actions running asynchronously?

Hi Clive,

&nbsp;

Please see the attached project for a way to process a list of items in parallel.
