NovaBACKUP Storage Server
46
Calculates the amount of server disk space used by a specified user account and updates the
total recorded in the SQL database. Updates the disk usage for all users if ”r;*” is given as the
account name. Older versions of the software used a floating point number to represent disk
usage. Rounding errors could affect the accuracy of this number over time and render it
unsuitable for billing purposes. This command may be used to correct the stored value. As of
version 13.0 the usage is stored as a byte count and is no longer subject to rounding errors.
However, the command may still be useful for correcting totals in cases where the file system
was modified outside of software control.
remove
Removes the program from the list of Windows Services. This command is used by the
uninstaller and should not be run manually.
uninstall
This command is the same as the remove command.
add
Adds the program to the list of Windows services. The command is used by the installer and
should not be run manually.
install
This command is the same as the add command.
manual
This command runs the storage server as a normal program as opposed to a Windows service.
It is intended for debugging and should not be run manually.
Use the &endash;h or &endash;help options without a command to display a brief command
summary.
BackupServerUtil.exe
This is the GUI Configuration Manager utility used to configure the storage server. The
command line format is:
BackupServerUtil [/debug] [/userinfo <user-account-name>|*] [/nolastbackup] [<alternate-
config-file-name>]
The /debug option records diagnostic information in &ldots;
The /userinfo option creates a report describing the amount of disk space and computer
licenses used by a user account, along with the number of backup server requests made by the
account. If ”r;*” is given as the user account name, then a report for all accounts is created.
The /nolastbackup option surpresses display of the last backup date and time on the user
accounts tab. Use this option to leave more room for displaying other account information.
An alternate configuration file may optionally be specified. By default, the program uses the
backupserver.ini file residing in the same folder as itself.
