Data Protector Express User's Guide and Technical Reference
The
Printer
page appears on the property page of each user in the
Security
view. You can select a
specific printer, font, print range and number of copies. Data Protector Express prints the job log
automatically as soon as the job finishes, according to the autoprint settings of the job owner.
For more information about setting up printing, see
Printer page
on page 240.
To configure this feature, access the group or user from the
Security
view, then click the
Autoprint
page.
Update your settings and click
OK
.
NOTE:
You must also select the
Print log
setting on the
Options
page of the job to automatically print the
job log. For more information, see
Logging options
on page 230.
Emailing job logs
Data Protector Express can send you an email automatically when a job has completed. This way you can
know for certain that a job has run successfully or the reason why a job has failed to run correctly. If you
can retrieve your email remotely, you can monitor your jobs, even if you are away from the office.
NOTE:
If a job fails before it can generate a log, Data Protector Express cannot email you the job log.
To use this feature, you must configure the email support option (see
Appendix B – Configuring Email
).
The job log is sent to the addresses listed on the
Log Options
screen of the
Options
page for each job. To
specify several addresses, separate each address with a semicolon (no spaces). Additionally, you can enter
the same address if you want to send a copy of
every
job log to the same user. For example, you might
send the Data Protector Express administrator the log of every job that runs. Alternatively, consider
setting up a separate email account for the sole purpose of receiving job logs.
Audit Logs
Some files, such as databases, are mission critical and regular backups of these files are essential. It is
also essential that system administrators be able to verify that these files have been regularly backed up.
The Data Protector Express
audit
trails
feature allows you to collect, store and print such information
about selected files and databases.
You can use the Data Protector Express audit trails feature to track how often and when a file, folder,
volume or database is backed up, verified and restored. Data Protector Express will create an
audit trail
for each object for which auditing is enabled. Each time an action is performed on this object, the audit
trail or log is updated with information about when that object was backed up, restored, and so on. The
audit log also includes information about the media on which versions of a file are stored.
By default, auditing is disabled for most objects. To create an audit log for an object, you check
Enable
Audit
on the
General
property page.
Auditing is turned on for User, Exchange, and SQL objects by default. For objects that can be backed up
(for example, Exchange, SQL), turning on the auditing flag for the object causes a special job log entry to
be made when that object is backed up. This feature calls your attention to important items, to confirm
they have been backed up, even if they don’t have logging turned on.
NOTE:
Enable Audit
does not apply to all objects in Data Protector Express. If
Enable Audit
does not
appear on the
General
property page of the selected object, this setting is not available for that type of
object.
