Required Attributes; Exclude Attributes; Allow Parents; Allow Children - HP BB118BV - StorageWorks Data Protector Express Package User Manual

specify multiple wildcards, Data Protector Express excludes any file that matches any one of the
wildcards you specify.
Operating systems track certain features of files called attributes that they use to manage these files. You
can use these same attributes as a selection filter. In the Required attributes field, if an attribute is
checked, Data Protector Express only selects those files which have these attributes. For example, if you
check Hidden, Data Protector Express only selects those files which the operating system has assigned
the Hidden attribute.
You can select multiple attributes. In this case, Data Protector Express only selects those files that meet
all of the required attributes.
Some attributes are only supported by certain operating systems. If you specify an attribute that is
specific to a particular operating system, then only files created under that operating system will be
selected for restore.
This field works like the Required attributes field except that Data Protector Express excludes files that
match these attributes. For example, if you have checked the Execute Only box, Data Protector Express
will exclude from the restore job any files with the Execute Only attribute.
You can select multiple attributes. A file that has any one of these attributes will be excluded. For
example, if you mark the Hidden and System attributes, any file that has either attribute will be excluded.
When this option is checked, Data Protector Express restores directory information for any selected folder
or volume. For example, if you have marked a folder, Data Protector Express will restore that folder only
if this option is checked. When this option is not checked, directory information about folders and
volumes is not restored.
When this option is checked, Data Protector Express restores files. When this option is unchecked, Data
Protector Express does not restore files. This is useful if you want to restore a complex directory
structure, but not the files in that directory. To restore a directory structure, but not the files (children)
stored in the directories, begin by marking the directory for restoring. Then clear the Allow Children
option. Data Protector Express will restore only the directory structure to the volume you specify.
Data Protector Express tracks versions of files and the media on which those versions are stored. You can
use this information to sort files according to the media on which they appear. Only files with versions on
the media in the Media field will be selected for the restore job. For example, if you select media named
"Daily Set:1," Data Protector Express will only include files in the restore job which have a valid version
on the media named "Daily Set:1."
To sort files according to the media on which they appear, click the Add... button and select the media
from the Browse window. Note that you must select a Media object, not a Media folder or User/Group
folder. If there are multiple media shown in the Media filter field, only files which have a valid version
on all the media listed will be selected.
