Parallel execution of DTS steps.

Hi,
I have a DTS package that exports 50 database tables from SQL Server to
Oracle.
At this point the DTS package runs steps after each other (serial
execution). Since both servers are extremely powerful, the can handle more
than one concurrent DTS step at a time.
Is there any way to have DTS execute five or six steps in parallel fashion?
Any help would be appreciated,
MaxYes, you can. Basically, tasks run in parallel, unless you have set up
workflows that force them to be run serially. That said, if your source is
the same for all of your data pumps, then the process gets serialized, since
the connection is in use. In that case, create multiple connections, each
of which point to the same server.
For example, if you are pumping from ServerA to ServerB, create, say, 4
ServerA connections - ServrA1, ServerA2, etc. and the same goes for ServerB.
Then, make sure your pumps use the different connections.
