Disk Space & Client Management

Overview

The Disk Space & Client Management page represents all the groups, Clients and Backups in an intuitive tree and thus allows the Administrator to manage the storage allocation and usage in a usable interface. It follows a dynamic user interface using which the storage space allotted could be edited with the least amount of user operations. Thus the administrator is able to get a bird's eye view of the storage allotted and used by Group/Client. You can also push client/backup setting changes from the backup server into the client machines.

How to get here in the Web Console?
 In the top menu, select: "Settings -> Disk Space & Client Management"

Disk Space & Client Management

This page lists the groups, clients and their backups in a tree format. It also shows the allotted and used disk space for the server, groups and clients.

Clicking on a Group node in the tree will display the List of Clients under the group.

Clicking on a Client node in the tree will display the List of Backup Schedules under the client.

The table for the list of groups/clients is described below:

  • Group/Client Name : This is the name of the group/client provided when the group/client was added to the server.

  • Backup Location : This is the default location where the backup data will be stored. A new client connecting to this backup server will by default store its backup data in this location. However, if the client or its parent group is allocated a different storage location, its backup data will be stored in that location and not in this default location.

  • MCALs Allotted : This is the total number of MCALs allotted.

  • MCALs Used : This is the total number of MCALs used.

  • Allotted Space : The disk space allotted in the backup server.

  • Used Space : The disk space currently being used.

  • Actions :

    Click on the Edit link against the Server, Group or Client to change the disk space allotted for them.

    Click on the Change Client Side Settings icon against the client/backup to make changes to the client or backup settings and to push those changes changes from the backup server into the client systems through Centralized Client Management (CCM) feature.
