Backup Manifest - Dell DX6000 Installation And Configuration Manual

3.5.1. Backup Manifest

A manifest anchor stream is created in the storage cluster with the first backup set and updated with
every subsequent backup. The UUID for the manifest is displayed at the top of the backup interface.
It will not display until after the 2nd backup has been created.
Note
Administrators should copy this UUID into a safe location so that in the event of a
complete system failure the list of backup sets can be retrieved from the storage cluster.
The backup manifest is written with metadata that allows retrieval from the cluster with DX Content
Router if the UUID is ever lost. Specifically the two following headers will be present on the manifest
anchor stream:
CAStor-Application: backup_csn
CAStor-Application-Component: manifest
