No password This option uses no authentication and allows the user to enter the Predesktop Area without using a password. Password access There are three options for password access: • Master password • User ID and password or passphrase • No password Master password The master password is a single password that allows you access to the Predesktop Area and backups. This is set by using the command line interface, and is the only password option if Client Security Solution is not installed. User ID and password or passphrase This option uses the Client Security Solution code for password or passphrase management. The Client Security Solution GINA will prompt the user for this password or passphrase on startup of the Predesktop Area. This provides better security for a multi-user environment. If a user logs on using the GINA, that user is allowed access to that user's files only, and no one else's. This option can be set through the command line interface or the GUI. No password This option uses no authentication. Log files The following are log files located in the C:\swshare directory: • Engine.log Logs all activities of the engine and the main backup service. • rr.log Logs all activities of the main Rescue and Recovery user interface. • Restore.log Logs restore operations like full restore, rejuvenate, and single file restore operations. • tvtsched.log Logs the scheduler service that calls the Rescue and Recovery program and/or InvAgent. • Rescue.log Logs the activities of the mailman.exe program. • patch.log Logs the activities of the Rescue and Recovery patches applied to the system. • sft.log Logs single file restore operations. Create Rescue Media The Create Recovery Disc function has been separated from the Create Rescue Media application in the Windows 7 version of the Rescue and Recovery program, and this makes the Create Rescue Media a unique function to create the bootable rescue media for virtual Predesktop Area. To enhance user experience, we provide the following entries to launch the Create Rescue Media program in the Rescue and Recovery 4.5 program: 1. An additional menu button for accessing the Create Rescue Media program is available in the advanced mode of the Rescue and Recovery program. 2. A shortcut to the Create Rescue Media program is available on the Advanced tab in the advanced mode of the Rescue and Recovery program. Chapter 3. Configurations 43
