NetVault 13.3.2 - Administration Guide

You can configure the Offline Index After option in the Backup Advanced Options Set to automatically delete the online index for a backup after the specified period. For more information, see Setting Backup Life options.

•

You can use the Days of inactivity before an index is offlined setting to configure a global policy for deleting online indexes after a specified period of inactivity. For more information, see Configuring Media Manager settings for backup indexes.

•

You manually delete the online indexes for one or more backups from the Manage Backup Indexes page. For more information, see Manually deleting online indexes.

The indexes for the savesets can be loaded from the backup media if required.


	NOTE: Deleting a backup index is not the same as retiring a backup. When a backup is retired, NetVault 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 still retains some information about the saveset. This information allows NetVault to quickly reload the saveset index from the backup media.

Compressing online indexes

Online indexes are automatically compressed after 30 days of inactivity. You can modify the Days of inactivity before an index is compressed setting to customize this policy. For more information, see Configuring Media Manager settings for backup indexes.

You can also manually compress the online indexes for one or more backups from the Manage Backup Indexes page. For more information, see Manually compressing online indexes.
