Backup Options
Options are simply a collection of various options associated with backup operations. Options are organized in collections and may be used on a per-client basis.
The User Interface comes with a number of predefined collections of options. In order to manage these collections, or to create a new collection of options, the user selects the "Options" button at the top of the backup screen. The screen that appears shows all of the current option collections that are present with the following columns
- The first column is an icon representing whether the collection of options is read-only (a lock icon appears) or whether it is read-write (no icon appears.)
- Options: The name of the collection of options.
- OS Family: The operating system family associated with the collection of options.
- Description: A text description of the collection of options.
At the bottom of the pane there are a number of relatively large buttons. These are described below:
- New: This button is used to create a new collection of options.
- View/Modify: This button is used to view and/or modify a previously selected collection of options (from the pane above these buttons.)
- Delete: This button is used to delete a previously selected collection of options.
- Copy: This button is used to copy a previously selected collection of options.
