Listing, editing, and deleting archive points

The easiest way to manage archive points is to use the Administration Console. Alternatively you can use the ArchivePoints command-line tool. For information on how to use ArchivePoints to create, delete, list, show contents, and update archive points, see ArchivePoints in the Utilities manual.

Note that you can also get a list of archive points by processing a server or volume in Report Mode. The report that is generated lists all the archive points.

  1. In the Administration Console, expand Targets.

  2. Expand File Servers.

  3. Expand the file server that hosts the volume you want to manage.

  4. Right-click the volume you want to manage and, on the shortcut menu, click Archive Points.

  5. Expand the Archive Points listing. Archive points are shown as follows:

    Auto-enabling folder

  6. To edit an archive point, click the archive point to select it and then click Edit.
