Archive
This system allows you to archive on-demand or by a schedule client backups or appliance local directories. Each feature of the archive system is navigable via the toolbar at the bottom of the archive pane. The paragraphs that follow are a brief depiction of each of these features.
- Status: The status feature shows the list of archive sets and backups that constitute the sets; it is also the entry point into the interface to restore archived backups.
- Archive Now: The archive now feature enables users to be able to perform manual archives (also sometimes referred to as an immediate archive). While this feature is useful for creating a one-time archive set, it is not recommended as the basis for the periodic archiving of your backups.
- Schedules: The schedules feature enables users to be able to perform scheduled archive operations. Scheduled archives allow users to archive on a periodic schedule the backups that need to be copied to removable media.
- Media: The media feature allows the user to view the status of and manage their connected archive media.
- Settings: The settings feature allows the user to view and change archive subsystem settings. The archive setting feature allows the configuration of tape and tape autoloader settings.
