Table: Client settings properties for Windows clients
Property | Description |
|---|---|
Enables logs for bpinetd, bpbkar, tar, and nbwin. The higher the level, the more information is written. The default is . | |
Specifies how long the client waits before the archive bits for a differential incremental backup are cleared. The minimum allowable value is 300 (default). The client waits for acknowledgment from the server that the backup was successful. If the server does not reply within this time period, the archive bits are not cleared. This option applies only to differential-incremental backups. Cumulative-incremental backups do not clear the archive bit. | |
Note: The option applies to Windows clients only. This option works together with the Use Accelerator policy attribute and the Accelerator forced rescan schedule attribute. | |
Specifies the number of minutes to add to the date range for incremental backups when you use date-based backups. This value compensates for differences in the speed of the clock between the NetBackup client and server. The default is 60 minutes. This value is used during incremental backups when you use the archive bit and when you examine the create time on folders. This comparison is done for archive bit-based backups as well as date-based backups. | |
Specifies the size (in kilobytes) of the TCP and the IP buffers that NetBackup uses to transfer data between the NetBackup server and client. For example, specify 10 for a buffer size of 10 kilobytes. The minimum allowable value is 2, with no maximum allowable value. The default is 128 kilobytes. | |
Specifies the seconds that are allowed between when a user requests a backup or restore and when the operation begins. The operation fails if it does not begin within this time period. This property has no minimum value or maximum value. The default is 60 seconds. | |
Instructs NetBackup to search the default range of backup images automatically. The backed up folders and files within the range appear whenever a restore window is opened. Clear the check box to disable the initial search. With the property disabled, the NetBackup Restore window does not display any files or folders upon opening. The default is that the option is enabled. | |
Enables logs for TCP. Scroll to one of the following available log levels:
Note: Setting the TCP level to 2 or 3 can cause the status reports to be very large. It can also slow a backup or restore operation. | |
| |
Defines how many times a NetBackup client can send the same error message to a NetBackup server. For example, if the archive bits cannot be reset on a file, this property limits how many times the message appears in the server logs. The default is 10. | |
Specifies how many days the system keeps progress reports before NetBackup automatically deletes them. The default is 3 days. |
