File List | |
Gen (Excluding Library File Headers) | Shows the corresponding file generation. |
Backup Time | Shows the time that the file was backed up. |
Last Modified | Shows the time that the file was last edited. |
File Type | Shows the DS-System online file type of file that was backed up. • Regular • Master • Delta • Public Library • Customer Library • Client Library • Archived: Means the corresponding generation has been ‘pushed’ to the BLM Archiver, and only a small (~1K) stub remains online. |
Link ID (Excluding Library File Headers) | Two types of links may be shown: • Master/Delta File: If 0, no other generation depends on this one. If a number appears, it is the Generation ID of the next generation in the (delta) chain. • Library File: This is the ID of the DS-Library file. |
Flags | Shows the corresponding backup options that have been applied to this particular file. These options correspond to the following key: P = Permissions S = Backup Streams G = Digital Signature M = Master File D = Delta E = Extended Attributes (NetWare) B = Bindery (NetWare) N = NDS (NetWare) R = Registry (Windows) X = POSIX |
Attr | Shows the attributes of the backed up file. R = Read Only H = Hidden S = System A = Archive C = Compressed D = Directory |
Size (Bytes) | Shows the original size of the file. |
DS Size (Bytes) | Shows the actual size of the file, as stored on the DS-System. |
Stream Size (Bytes) | Shows the full transmission size of the file (including file security, permissions, streams, etc.). |
Encryption | Shows the type of encryption being used on the file (if any) and any extended information. • Encryption type: type and strength of the encryption (e.g. DES56, AES128, AES192, AES256) |
Compression | Shows the type of compression being used on the file. |
Archive ID | Shows the corresponding archive package number for the generation. |
Archive Time | Time when the corresponding generation was “pushed” to BLM from online. If there is a date in this field, this generation has been Archived (it cannot be restored from DS-System, only from a BLM Restorable Image). |
Verify Link (Excluding Library File Headers) | Click to verify the link of the selected generation from the list. This confirms that DS-System can find the backup data required by the selected generation: • If it is a Library, check that the library exists. • If it is a Delta, check that the required blocks in previous generation file(s) exist. • If it is a Master or Regular file, check that the source file exists. |
Optimize (Master generations only) | Click to optimize the selected Master in the File Generation List: • DS-System will try to optimize the Master at the block-level (it may achieve slightly better de-duplication than the DS-Client). • If the preceding generation is also a Master, DS-System will convert the Master you are optimizing into a Delta that depends on it. |
Restore | Click to try to restore the selected generation in the File Generation List: • Opens the "File Restore" dialog box. |
