You can view individual files within the archive. Use search options to select the files you want to view. (This procedure is similar to viewing archived backups in To view archive information, except that this procedure allows you to view individual files based on search criteria for specific file types rather than files under a client.)
1 Click Archive > Status.
2 Click Show Search Options in the top pane and enter search criteria using any of the options or a combination. See Archive search options and results for more information.
Note: The Show Search Options feature is for archived file-level backups only. If you attempt to search for a file in an application or virtual machine archive backup, you receive a message that no files were found.
3 Click Search. Details of the search results display in the center stage area (the summary portion of the screen) in the Search Results tab. (Click on the Status tab at any time to view the archive set information.)
The search results return all files that meet the search criteria if you selected Include, or return all files that do NOT meet the search criteria if you selected Exclude. (If you selected to view files on a tape that has a barcode, your search results include a column with barcode information.)
The center stage area contains the following information about the files. You can sort or resize the columns.
