Removing Protection

If you no longer want to back up a particular disk or partition, you can remove protection
as long as a recovery is not currently in progress for that disk or partition. If a recovery is
in progress, you must cancel it or wait until it completes before you can remove
protection.
Note: If you plan to delete a protected partition, you must remove protection before you delete
that partition. Otherwise, you might not be able to protect other partitions on that disk.
When you remove protection for a disk for which remote boot is enabled, remote boot is
disabled and your computer restarts.
When you remove protection, you can no longer back up the selected disk or partition
either automatically or manually, and you cannot recover data using Client Backup and
Recovery as described in
Data Disk" on page
are retained, and you can recover them using the recovery CD as described in
a System Disk Using the Recovery CD" on page
If you subsequently want to protect the same disk or partition again, you can re-use the
existing backups. You can also delete the existing backups on the storage system to free
up space for backups of other disks or partitions, either for this computer or other
computers. For more information, see
for your storage system.
To remove protection:
1. In the Protected disk list on any page, select the disk for which you want to remove
protection.
2. From the Action menu, click Remove Protection.
3. Click Yes at the confirmation message.
The disk disappears from the Protected disk list. If another disk is protected, that disk
displays in the Protected disk list, and information about that disk displays in the
application window. If no other disk is protected, click OK on the informational
message; the Protected disk list and application window are blank.
4. If remote boot was enabled, it is disabled. When prompted, click OK to restart your
computer.
