Buffalo Surveillance Server 202
To understand how this setting can affect a configuration, imagine an environment where a
single Vault with a single tape drive is used to service several Buffalo Surveillance Server
clients. When a client is configured with connection sharing set to 250 files, and several other
clients are configured to start jobs at the same time, no client can connect until the first client
is finished. Each client's connection to the server will lock out all other connections; all other
clients will have to wait before processing files.
To set the connection sharing value, enter a value number in the Maintain Client/Vault
Connection for text box.
Click the Files radio button or Bytes radio button depending on which you prefer. If you click
Files, connection sharing will proceed based on the number of files transmitted; if you click
bytes, based on the number of bytes.
Throttle
Throttling controls the speed at which files are sent to the Vault. Lower numbers reduce the
bandwidth. Throttle values range from 1% to 100% of total available bandwidth.
The Buffalo Surveillance Server is designed to operate at the maximum performance of its host
computer, the network environment, and the storage resources available. Sometimes, during
normal working hours, running a job at peak performance will interfere with other network
operations.
To adjust throttling, click the Throttle pull-down menu, and select the percentage of
maximum performance at which you want to operate the client on its host computer.
Test Run: Output Results but Do Not Actually Move Files
When you create a complex set of process parameters, including several filters and options,
Test Run enables you to test the job before you execute a live job.
Check Test Run: Output results but do not actually move files . When the process is
scheduled to run, the Buffalo Surveillance Server will build the list of files that match all the
criteria, but it will not actually move the files. Results will be output in the report you have
defined in the Report Options fields.
Include Offline Files
Since the Buffalo Surveillance Server logs all of your stored files, you have the option of
including even off-line files in jobs. However, if in your policy you denote files that are located on
off-line media, the job will require more time as the system will enter a wait state whenever
offline media is required.
To include files that are on media that you have physically removed from a Vault, check
Include offline files . A window will appear to request that you physically load the media.
