How to get here in the Web Console?

This page lists the Groups available under a Server in a tree format in the left hand side and in a table format in the right hand side. The Group tree will have list of clients under each Group node and the list of backup schedules configured under each client node.
Clicking on the Groups root node in the tree will display the List Of Groups in a table format on the right hand side.
Clicking on a Group node in the tree will display the List Of Clients under the group in a table format on the right hand side.
Clicking on a Client node in the tree will display the List Of Backup Schedules under the client in a table format on the right hand side.
Clicking on a Backup Schedule node in the tree will display the different Server Side Backup Reports (Backup Report, Restore Report and Deleted Reports) for the backup schedule.
The table columns and the actions for the list of groups table on the right hand side is described below:
Add New Group - Clicking on this link will take you to the 'Add New Group' page. You can add a new group in the Server from this page.
Group Name - This is the name of the group you provided when the group was added to the server. Each Group name has to be unique
MCALs Allotted - This is the number of MCALs allotted to the Group. If the clients under a Group consume all of the MCALs allotted to the Group, then none of the Clients can backup even though there may be MCALs available in the backup server. It is not required to allocate MCALs to the Group. If MCALs are not allocated to the Group, then the backup server will automatically use the MCALs available in the server pool. You only need to allocate MCALs to a Group if you want to restrict only certain number of clients to backup.
Total MCALs used till date - This is the total number of MCALs used by the different client machines under this Group.
Allotted Space - This is the total backup disk space allotted to the group.
Used Space - The total disk space currently used by the group.
Actions - The icons under this column are links to various features to enable you to administer and manage your groups.
Enable / Disable Auto Authorization - Clicking on this icon will toggle between enabling and disabling auto authorization for this group. The auto authorization feature is described in more detail in the Add New Group section.
