Settings 
[Optional] Customize the recovery operation by configuring the recovery options, such as 
pre/post recovery commands, recovery priority, error handling or notification options. If you 
do nothing in this section, the default values (p. 71) will be used.  
After any of the settings is changed against the default value, a new line that displays the 
newly set value appears. The setting status changes from Default to Custom. Should you 
modify the setting again, the line will display the new value unless the new value is the 
default one. When the default value is set, the line disappears and so you always see only the 
settings that differ from the default values in the Settings section. 
Clicking Reset to default resets all the settings to default values.
