Administrator creates a subclient policy to specify the folders (e.g.
Documents, Music, Videos, etc,.) such that the contents (e.g. word processing
documents, digital photos, music files and so on) of user laptops gets backed
up.
However, the administrator must request the users to copy the files and
folders to be backed up into the specified folder(s) in subclient policy.
A user can also backup files or folder other than the folders specified by
administrator, by adding backup content path from Web Console. See,
Adding Backup Content
for step-by-step procedure.
What will happen When Multiple Routes Are Added For Firewall In A Laptop?
If the multiple route includes a direct connection, and if the direct
connection is available, then the laptop will automatically use the direct
connection.
If a direction connection is not available, then the proxy setup will be
used.
If you have multiple proxies defined, the laptop will automatically use
the faster connection.
Can I configure both absolute and relative
throttling rules together?
Yes. Both absolute and relative throttling rules can be configured for the
same client or client group. They work in conjunction, the absolute value will
takes precedence, after the percentage of relative bandwidth is calculated.
For example if you create a rule for a client with absolute throttling where
the send or receive value is set at 1,000 kbps along with another rule where the
relative throttling for the same client is set at 50% of bandwidth if the
bandwidth is less than 5,000 kbps. If the bandwidth measured for the client is
4,000 kbps then 50% of that value will result in 2,000 kbps.
Since the value set for the absolute throttling rule is below the calculated
bandwidth for the relative throttling rule, the absolute throttling rule will
take precedence and will not exceed beyond 1,000 kbps.
How Do I Assign Different Capabilities To Different Sets Of Users?

How Do I Assign Multiple Users As Laptop Owners?
By default, all users and groups who are member of Administrators group
on the laptop (client) will be automatically designated as owners.
The following sections describes how to assign multiple users as owners to a
client or multiple clients (client computer groups).
Use the following steps to associate or disassociate members from an existing
user group to a client computer. This will allow you to manage the members in the
laptop user group.
If necessary you can use the following steps to overwrite the associate user
group available on the client with a given user group.
Right-click the View Sample XML File link and click
Save Link As... or Save Target As... to save the XML file
needed for this task.
Open the .xml file using an XML editor and modify the following
parameters:
clientName - Specify the names of the client computers
that to you want to associate to the user group.
For example:
If you wish to associate user group to client1, client2
and clientx then you must add the following:
<entity>
<clientName>client1</clientName>
<clientName>client2</clientName>
<clientName>clientx</clientName>
</entity>
userGroupName - Specify the user group to which you want
to associate to the client.
For example: If you wish to associate
usergroup1 to the above clients, then you must add the following:
<userGroupName>usergroup1</userGroupName>
associatedUserGroupsOperationType - Indicate one of the
following operation types:
ADD - To associate the User
Group to a Client
DELETE - To disassociate the User Group to a Client
OVERWRITE - To associate the user group mentioned above
and disassociate all the user group available on the client computer.
For example:
If usergroup2 and
usergroup3 are already associated
on client1, and you wish to overwrite
the available user groups with usergroup4.
This operation associates usergroup4
to the client1 and disassociates
usergroup2 and
usergroup3.
Save the file as input.xml.
From Command prompt, navigate to <Software_Installation_Directory>/Base
and then run the following command:
Login to the CommServe using the qlogin
command and commcell credentials.
For example, to log on to CommServe
server1 with username
user1:
C:\>qlogin -cs server1 -u user1
Run the XML using the qoperation command.
For example, to
run input.xml
C:\>qoperation execute –af input.xml
You can verify the user group associated to client from Associated
Groups.
From the CommCell Browser, right-click the <Client> and
then click Properties.
Click Security tab.
The User Group specified above will be listed in the
Associated Groups.
Use the following steps to associate or disassociate members from an existing
user group to a client computer group. This will allow you to manage the members
in the laptop user group.
If necessary you can use the following steps to overwrite the associate user
group available on the client group with a given user group.
