Subclient Properties (Content)

Use this tab to define the contents of a new subclient or to change the content of an existing subclient. Items included in subclient content are backed up/migrated/content indexed by the subclient. Note that all the options described in this help may not be available and only the options displayed in the dialog box are applicable to the agent for which the information is being displayed.

Contents of subclient

Displays a list of paths of data/workspaces/categories/documents/folders included as content for this subclient. Special characters (such as "\" "/" "." ",") represent content of the default subclient, that is not assigned to other subclients within the backup set. For Unix, when a symbolic link is included in subclient content, the target of the symbolic link is displayed in the content list instead of the link itself.

    Click to enter a new content path.

    Enter the UNC path of the share to configure a subclient to backup and restore.

Type in the UNC path of the share that has to be added in the Enter New Content field and click Add. Repeat this step to add more files and/or folders to the content.

  1. If this is the first UNC path being entered as subclient content the Impersonate NT User dialog box will appear. Enter the user account information for the Domain User with permissions for that path. Note the following:
    • Login name must be provided in the following format: <domain>\UserName
      For example, to log on as usr1 in a domain called MyDomain, enter MyDomain\usr1 as the user name
    • The domain user that you specify should have access to all the UNC paths entered as contents of the subclient.
    • Adding a UNC shared path as subclient content of a member server that points to a server in a workgroup requires the local user name and password is identical to a domain user's name and password. (This is a scenario where <UserName> and password is accepted.)
    • Adding a UNC shared path as subclient content of a non-member (workgroup) server that points to a member server requires the local user name and password is identical to a domain user's name and password. (This is a scenario where <UserName> and password is accepted.)
    • The domain user can be changed at a later time with the As User button.
  2. To save your content changes, click OK.
  Do not include UNC path for Online Content Indexing subclient.
  For File Archiver for Windows, UNC paths are not supported with subclients associated with Local File System.

Backup Content Path

Click the drop-down list arrow to display the root volumes on the file server. To change the root volume, click one in the list. If you want to refine the content path further, use the space to the right of (or below) the root volume list to enter additional path information. Note the following:

Enter new content

Use this space to specify the paths of other data that you want the subclient to contain.

Add

Click to add the data that you specified in Enter new content or Backup Content Path to the Contents list.

Treat characters as regular expressions

Specifies whether regular expressions (i.e., strings that use wildcard characters) will be interpreted as wildcards or as literal strings in the last level of the content path for user-defined subclients. Selecting this option BEFORE CLICKING THE ADD BUTTON will cause the system to recognize wildcard characters in the last level of the content path for user-defined subclients. See Wildcards for a list of supported wildcards. This option is not applicable for default subclients.

Case Sensitive

Specifies whether content paths will be case sensitive. Selecting this option will cause the system to recognize the difference between upper case and lower case characters in the content path.

Backup System State

Specifies whether the system state will be backed up with this subclient. Selecting this option causes the system state to be backed up with the file system for this subclient.

Backup Office Communication Server

Specifies whether the Office Communications Server will be backed up with this subclient. Selecting this option causes the OCS data & settings to be backed up with the file system for this subclient.

Enable Apple Double Support

Specifies whether to facilitate the management of resource fork data in Apple Double-encoded Macintosh files.

This option may not work on Solaris subclients.
