Deleting a backup
Deleting a client
62
You can delete all backups of a given disk, but you cannot delete just an individual
backup from a specific date and time.
Note:
If you delete all backups of all disks for a particular computer, that
computer no longer displays on the Backups page. However, that computer
name remains in the storage system and counts toward the total number of
computers that are allowed to back up to the storage system. If you want to delete
all backups of all disks and the computer name, refer to the next section,
"Deleting a
client."
To delete all backups of a disk:
1. In the navigation bar, click Backups.
2. Select the radio button adjacent to the disk whose backups you want to delete
(in the second Select column).
3. Click Delete Backup.
4. When prompted to confirm the deletion, click OK.
The disk no longer displays on the Backups page, and all backup versions are
deleted. If only one disk was protected, the computer name disdisplays from the
page as well.
Note:
If you delete a backup and the user did not previously
remove protection for that disk, when the user subsequently accesses
DiskSafe
Express, the Status page will indicate that the backup of the protected disk is
offline. To back up the disk once again, the user must remove protection and
then protect the disk again. For more information, refer to
and
"Protecting your disks".
If you remove DiskSafe Express from a particular computer, or if you change the
computer name, the original computer name remains on the storage system and
counts toward the total number of computers that are allowed to back up to the
storage system. To delete all backups of all disks for a particular computer and the
computer name, you must delete the client.
To delete a client:
1. In the navigation bar, click Backups.
2. Select the radio button to the left of the computer whose backups and computer
name you want to delete from the storage system (in the first Select column).
