NWBACKUP(8) Legato NetWorker 4.1.1 NWBACKUP(8)
NAME
nwarchive - NetWorker graphical archive interface
SYNOPSIS
nwarchive [ -s server ]
DESCRIPTION
nwarchive is an X Window System application. It is a front end to
archive(8) and used to archive files to a NetWorker server on an ad
hoc basis. Normally, files are archived automatically.
The server's name may be specified with the -s server argument. When
no server is specified, nwarchive uses the server selection rules
found in nsr(8). When multiple NetWorker servers are accessible,
they may be selected from within the nwarchive command.
NetWorker supports both scheduled network-wide archives and manual
archives of client system files and directories. To request an
immediate manual archive, run nwarchive
Check that the correct NetWorker server is selected. The Server is
identified in the Main window. You can change servers using the
Change Server command if necessary. This is the Server to which the
client files will be backed up. The hostname of the current client is
displayed in the Client field. The pathname of the current directory
is displayed in the Selection field.
Change directories by entering the full pathname in the Selection
field or by highlighting the icon in the Archive window.
To perform a manual archive, first mark the files and directories
that you want to back up by selecting their checkboxes. Then select
Start archive... from the File menu of the Archive window. You must
enter an annotation for the archive.
Monitor the progress of the archive in the Archive Status window.
Check to see that an archive volume is mounted in the Pending display
of the Main window.
A complete explanation of the nwarchive command may be found in the
NetWorker User's Guide.
