  • ZMC implements a simple way to accomplish the tasks that a user wants to carry out.
    • Related tasks are grouped under six Tabs, all of which are always visible.
    • Most Tasks are accomplished under a single Tab where Sub-Task sequence is left to right.
    • All the Sub-Tasks are also laid out in form of tabs.
    • Tabs arrangement has a left-to-right flow when the tasks span a number of Tabs.
  • Main Tabs

  • 4. The Report Tab can be used to generate reports about the backup.

  • Occasional unexpected navigation
    • ZMC normally will properly handle situations where a users hit the enter button without selecting anything.
    • Occasionally, the browser you are using will over-ride the default behavior built in and you will be taken to a page that is not what you had in mind.
    • Just hit the back button of the browser to come back and fill the values before hitting the enter button.

Warning:
When you refresh a page after a POST operation, browsers may open a dialog asking you if you want to repeat the operation.
If the user clicks OK ... the operation is repeated. This might produce unexpected results.
Please chose "Cancel' option rather than 'OK' option.
