D.1 Services for End Users
OES 2 offers a number of services to automatically back up your network users' data files.
Archive and Version Services: If you implement Archive and Version Services on your
network, your users can instantly restore any previous version of a modified, renamed, or
deleted network file on an NSS volume without requiring assistance from the IT staff.
iFolder 3.8: By implementing Novell
local files automatically follow them everywhere—online, offline, all the time—across
computers. Users can share files in multiple iFolders, and share each iFolder with a different
group of users. Users control who can participate in an iFolder and their access rights to the
files in it. Users can also participate in iFolders that others share with them.
Salvage and Purge: By default, all NSS volumes have the Salvage system enabled at the time
they are created. With Salvage enabled, deleted files are retained on the volume for a short
time, during which users can restore (salvage) them. File are eventually purged from the
system, either manually, or by the system when the Purge Delay setting times out or space is
needed on the volume.
