| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Source side deduplication | On occasions where many machines have identical roles within the data flow and also contain very similar data (for instance, OS data and installed software on machines on a corporate network) then a network speedup can be obtained by avoiding sending the same data multiple times. Check this option to make use of this. |
| Fast incremental based on file modification date | If this is checked then Ops Center Protector decides what files need resynchronizing based on whether the modification date has changed. This reduces the time taken to resynchronize, but can be disabled if it is known that software is installed that will modify files without updating their size or modification date. Note: If only file metadata changes between batch backups (e.g. file ownership or file permissions), then the changes are not captured. These changes are only captured when the file data changes.
|
| Fine change detection | Reduces the amount of data transferred and stored during a resynchronization. An entire file is transferred if it has changed and is less than one block in size. (This option should be used sparingly as there is a processing overhead.) |
| Deduplicate snapshots | Enables the storage group to deduplicate data across snapshots so the storage group only stores a single copy of the data. This option has a processing overhead. |
| Preserve hard links | Performs checks so that only one instance of the data is stored, regardless of the number of links pointing to it. This option increases the file system scan time during a resynchronization or batch backup. Note: As of Protector 6.5, this option is enabled by default. This is not retrospective and will only apply when new stores are created.
|
| Files excluded from global deduplication | A semicolon-separated list of file extensions to be excluded from the store group’s duplication detection can be entered here. |
| Automatic Validation | Automatically resynchronize source to the destination based on a schedule. One of the following options can be selected:
|
| Select a Schedule | Select a schedule to trigger automatic validation. Note: Schedules are created for automatic validation the same way as schedules for a policy. A schedule for automatic validation must use a Trigger, by default a pre created schedule named Trigger at 4 AM every day is selected.
|
| Check all files during validation | Ignores file modification date and checks every file for changes. |
| Cancel | Discards all changes and reverts to the previous page. |
| Previous | Takes the user to the previous screen in the wizard. |
| Finish | Commits the new settings. Pages currently open in other tabs and windows will need to be reloaded before the changes are seen by the user. |
