How to Offline Indexes?

Online backup indexes allow you to quickly scan through the contents of a saveset without loading the media. However, these indexes can increase the overall size of the NetVault Database. To manage the database size, delete or set online indexes offline.

NOTE: Deleting a backup index is not the same as retiring a backup. When a backup is retired, NetVault Backup discards all information about it from the NetVault Database. When you scan the media to retrieve the index for a retired saveset, it is loaded as a new index in the NetVault Database. When the online indexes are deleted, NetVault Backup still retains some information about the saveset. This information allows NetVault Backup to quickly reload the saveset index from the backup media.
