Facilis TERRABLOCK - Volumes Tab

23
Export to .csv
Users may export the contents of the TerraBlock Manager’s current window display
to a .csv file by using the ‘Export to .CSV’ command under the File Menu rather than
the User Mode menu. This .csv file can be then imported into any application that
supports comma-separated value files.
 If the user wishes to view all the members of a multi-server External
Tandem volume in the .csv document, they must first expand the External
Tandem volume display in the Volumes Tab prior to exporting the .csv file.
To expand the display of an External Tandem Volume, double-click the
External Tandem Volume name. The arrow icon next to the volume name
will turn down and the names of individual tandem pieces that make up the
volume will be displayed (~1, ~2, etc.).
Volumes Tab
The following describes each column listed displayed in the Volumes tab:
Name – The name of the volume as given by the administrator at time of creation.
If AutoFormat is used, the formatted volume label in the client OS will match the
TerraBlock name column.
If AutoFormat is not used when creating volumes, the volume must be formatted
and labeled manually in the client OS. It is highly recommended to use AutoFormat
at all times.
 For proper identification of volumes and the successful mounting and
un-mounting of volumes on client workstations, the formatted disk
label name must exactly match the TerraBlock volume name. Again,
AutoFormat is highly recommended when creating volumes.
Current User (“Editor” above) – This column shows the current mounted state of
a volume for the logged in user.
 W - This indicates the volume in the Name column is mounted on the
local workstation with write access. This row will be highlighted GREEN or
ORANGE depending on whether the volume is mounted Multi-user Write or
Single-user Write.
 R - This indicates the volume in the Name column is mounted on the
local client workstation with Read-Only access. This row will be highlighted
BLUE.
 - (dash) - This indicates the volume in the Name column has not been
mounted by the local workstation. This row will not be highlighted.
Sys (System) – The current mounted state of a volume across the entire network.
 W - This indicates the volume in the Name column is mounted on
another client workstation or the TerraBlock Server with write access.
