Before You Begin
- You can rename a subclient at any time. However, we recommend that you don't
rename a subclient while a data protection or archive operation is running on
that subclient.
- In cases where a subclient is renamed using the same name as a deleted subclient,
the system will append a Unix time stamp to the deleted subclient's name in
data protection job history reports and views to distinguish the two subclients.
For example, subclientname_1104257351.
Required Capability: See
Capabilities
and Permitted Actions
To
rename a subclient:
- From the CommCell Browser, right-click the subclient that you want to rename,
and then click Properties from the shortcut menu.
- From the Subclient
Properties (General) tab, or the QR Agent
Subclient Properties
(General) tab, type the new name in the Subclient Name field, and
then click OK.
The CommCell Browser updates the subclient with its new name. The new name will
also be reflected in any associated schedules and reports.

To
delete a user-defined subclient:
- From the CommCell Browser, right-click the user-defined subclient that you
want to delete, and then click Delete from the shortcut menu.
- A confirmation message is displayed, asking if you want to delete the subclient.
Click No to cancel the deletion and retain the subclient, or
click Yes to continue the deletion. If you click Yes:
- the subclient, and any data that may have been protected/archived by
the subclient are logically deleted, and you can no longer access the corresponding
data for recovery/retrieve purposes. However, the data remains valid for
the length of time specified by the associated retention period. Some agents
allow you to browse data from a deleted subclient provided that the Browse
Data Before date and time precedes the time that the user-defined subclient
was deleted.
- for agents that support a default subclient, once the user-defined subclient
is deleted its contents are automatically reallocated to the default subclient
the next time a data protection/archive/discovery operation is run on the
default subclient to ensure data protection coverage.
- the system deletes the selected subclient node and removes it from the
CommCell Browser.
- the system deletes any data protection/archive and recovery/retrieve
job schedules that are associated with the subclient.
