Editing container settings

Editing container settings

To modify the settings of an existing container, complete the following steps:

1.
On the left navigation menu, click Containers, and then select the storage group that contains the container you want to modify. (If you are only using the DefaultGroup storage group in your DR Series system, you do not need to select a group.)
The Containers page is displayed.
2.
In the list of containers, select the container you want to modify, and then click the Edit icon.
The Edit Container pane is displayed.
3.
Modify the marker and connection type options for the selected container as needed.
◦
For information about NFS or CIFS connection type container settings, see the topic, “Creating an NFS or CIFS Connection Type Container, and make the corresponding changes.
◦
For information about VTL container type settings, see the options available in the topic, Creating a VTL Type Container, and make the corresponding changes.
◦
For information about OST or RDS connection type container settings, see the options available in the topic, Creating an OST or RDS Connection Type Container, and make the corresponding changes.
 
CAUTION: If you are changing the marker type on a DR6000 system and you are using Rapid CIFS, you must remount the share on the client after you change the marker type.
 
NOTE: The DR Series system administrator who manages the DR Series system has a different set of privileges than the CIFS administrator user. Only the DR Series system administrator can change the password for the CIFS administrator user. To change the password that allows access for the CIFS administrator user, use the DR Series system CLI authenticate --set --user administrator command. For more information, see the DR Series System Command Line Reference Guide.
4.
After the container type settings have been modified, click Save.

Deleting a container

Deleting a container

To delete an existing container that contains data, complete the following steps.

 
CAUTION: Before deleting a container, you should first carefully consider whether you need to preserve the data in the container. Before deleting any DR Series container that contains deduplicated data, you should take steps to preserve this data using another means of long-term retention. Once a container is deleted, the deduplicated data cannot be retrieved.
1.
On the left navigation menu, click Containers, and then select the storage group that contains the container you want to delete. (If you are only using the DefaultGroup storage group in your DR Series system, you do not need to select a group.)
The Containers page is displayed.
2.
In the list of containers, select the container you want to delete, and then click the Delete icon.
3.
In the Warning dialog box, click Yes to confirm the deletion.

Viewing container statistics

Viewing container statistics

Displaying container statistics by using the CLI

In the DR Series system GUI, you can view statistics about a selected container. All statistics displayed represent specific information about the backup data, throughput, replication, marker type, and connection type for the selected container. The displayed statistics will vary depending upon the connection type used by the specified container.

To display container statistics for a selected container, complete the following steps.

1.
On the left navigation menu, click Containers, and then select the storage group that contains the container you want to view. (If you are only using the DefaultGroup storage group in your DR Series system, you do not need to select a group.)
The Containers page is displayed.
2.
In the list of containers, select the container for which you want to view statistics, and then click the Chart icon.
3.
In the Active and Throughput charts, you can view current statistics for the container.
The Active chart displays the number of active files ingested based on time (in minutes), and the number of active bytes ingested based on time (in minutes). The Throughput chart displays the number of read data in Mebibytes/per second (MiB/s) based on time (in minutes), and the number of write data in MiB/s based on time (in minutes).
 
NOTE: The values in the Active and Throughput charts refresh automatically every 15 seconds.
4.
In the Backup Data and Throughput panes, click Zoom to select the duration period you want to display.
5.
You can view the following additional information about the container.
◦
Marker Type—the marker type associated with the container.
◦
Connection Type—the configured connection type for the selected container, which can be NFS, CIFS, NDMP, iSCSI, FC, RDS, or OST. The type of connection information displayed for the container can vary based on connection type.
◦
Total Files—the total number of files in the selected container.
6.
In the Connection information pane, you can view information about the configured connection type for the selected container which can be NFS, CIFS, NDMP, iSCSI, FC, RDS, or OST. The type of information displayed can be different depending on the connection type. For example, the following information is displayed:
◦
NFS Connection Configuration pane—NFS access path, Client Access, NFS Options, Map root to, and NFS Write Accelerator (DR6000 only).
◦
CIFS Connection Configuration pane—CIFS share path, Client Access, and CIFS Write Accelerator (DR6000 only).
◦
If the container is an RDA connection type container, the Connection Type OST pane or Connection Type RDS pane displays the following information:
▪
Capacity — displays a Capacity pane with Status, Capacity, Capacity Used, and Total Images
▪
Duplication
— displays a Duplication Statistics pane with Inbound and Outbound statistics in the following categories: Bytes Copied (logical), Bytes Transferred (actual), Network Bandwidth Settings, Current Count of Active Files, and Replication Errors.
▪
Client Statistics — displays a Client Statistics pane with Images Ingested, Images Complete, Images Incomplete, Images Restored, Bytes Restored, Image Restore Errors, Image Ingest Errors, Bytes Ingested, Bytes Transferred, and Network Savings.
