Document Manager
HP StorageWorks Reference Information Storage System User Guide, April 2004 4-41
The Document Manager client has a local
database
that it uses to keep track
of all files a user has ever queued for archiving (since client installation). This
database is created (empty) when the client is installed.
The client database includes, for each file, a record of the archiving process
and the current archiving status. All of the information presented in the
Active-Archive Bin and the
My Active-Archive Properties
dialog box (panels
Import
Status
and
Reports
) is contained in the database.
The
Configure Data
panel of the
Advanced Client Configuration Settings
dialog box lets
you modify the database, removing selected file entries or resetting the status
of selected files.
Note:
Modifying entries in the client database has no effect on docu-
ments that have already been archived on the system. In partic-
ular, removing a document from the client database does not
remove it from any repositories where it was archived.
To modify the database entries for one or more files:
1. Choose the action you want to perform (
Select action to perform
).
2. Choose which files to apply the action to (
Select Data to perform action on
).
3. Click
Perform Action
.
You can also use the
Configure Data
panel to manually compact the client
database by clicking
Compact Database
.
The
Configure Data
panel of the
Advanced Client Configuration Settings
dialog box has
the following features:

Archive Bin contents are open in Windows Explorer.
