The Device Manager Library Support BrightStor ARCserve Backup improves the time of auto-refresh (for devices/groups status) and provides useful filters and an easier way to execute multiple device commands (format/erase on a set of slots). The filters will significantly reduce the amount of data and therefore will increase the manageability of the data and the performance of the application. The following filters are available: ■ Empty Slots filter-allows the user to see all non-empty slots or all slots of the library. ■ Range Slot filter-filters the slots that belong to a certain range of slots. ■ Media Pool filter-allows user to see only the tapes within a particular media pool. ■ Barcode filter-if the library supports a barcode reader it will filter the media that match the barcode; otherwise it will match the serial number. Note: The Media Pool and Barcode filters will accept wild cards. The Library filters apply to the Device Manager and Backup Manager/Destination views. To set a filter or to see the current one, select the Library Filter tab in the Preferences menu. These filters apply to the current opened managers, not to all managers. If a filter is applied to the view, the status bar indicates this by displaying FILTER in the second panel. By default, Device Manager and Backup Manager/Destination will filter the empty slots. 7-6 Administrator Guide
