Verify Tab

Introduction

• The main functionality of the Verify Tab is to pre-check that the proposed configuration of the Backup set is feasible.
• It also provides the functionality of post-checking the data of the Backup set already run.
• The functionality is provided by the five sub-tasks under it.

  • 2.End to end test generates a sample data file and does a complete cycle of backup and restore on the server for that file.
  • 3.Verify that Amanda's server has been properly configured for ZMC's use.
  • 4.Verify that individual client information including directories that need to be backed up are correct.
    • A drop down box allows users to choose the client/all clients that users wants to verify.
