Table 43: General Settings Fields
Select the local appliance network share with which the files
and folders from the CTERA Agent-enabled computer should be
backed up.
Subdirectories will automatically be created under this network
share for each backed up folder.
Specify whether to use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption for
connections from the CTERA Agent to the appliance:
Enabled. The CTERA Agent will use SSL.
Disabled. The CTERA Agent will not use SSL.
Automatic. The CTERA Agent will not use SSL when in the
same LAN as the appliance, and will use SSL when they are
not in the same LAN as the appliance.
The default value is Automatic.
Maximum Concurrent Backups
Type the maximum number of backups that can occur at the
same time.
Note: If the number of CTERA Agents concurrently attempting
to perform a backup operation exceeds this limit, each agent
over the limit will wait for the number of concurrent backups to
drop below this threshold, before commencing its own backup
operation.
The default value for the C200 is 10, and the default value for
the C400 and C800 is 25.
Allow user to configure the agent
Select this option to allow CTERA Agent users to configure their
own agent.
In order for CTERA Agent users to manage their own agents,
this option must be selected, and the CTERA Agent users must
have the "Back up files and directories" privilege on Windows,
or be members of the "ctera" user group on Linux or Mac OS-X.
For further information, refer to the CTERA Agent User Guide.
Note: When this option is cleared, selecting files for local
backup can only be done by an administrator in the appliance
Web interface. The CTERA Agent user cannot select files for
backup locally, nor can they configure agent settings via the
appliance Web interface. However, the user can still initiate
backup and restore operations.
