Agent Features CRC Verification for Windows and NetWare The Windows and NetWare client agents generate cyclic redundancy check (CRC) codes for all the files sent to the BrightStor ARCserve Backup server. The CRC is used to verify the integrity of the files to be backed up. Access Control Lists for Windows, UNIX, Linux, Mainframe Linux, and Mac OS X Access control lists (ACLs) for Windows, UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X client agents let you control which BrightStor ARCserve Backup server accesses the workstation through the client agent. The initial configuration setting for these client agents enables all backup servers to back up and restore data through a Windows, UNIX, Linux, or Mac OS X client agent. By creating an ACL, you can restrict data backup and restore operations to a specific group of servers for the particular client agent. Note: The Agent for FreeBSD in OS version 5.3 and 5.4, will backup and restore ACLs. Both default and access ACLs will be supported. This feature is not supported in FreeBSD version 4.11. Extended Attributes for Linux and FreeBSD The Client Agent for Linux and FreeBSD versions 5.3 and 5.4 will support backup and restore Extended Attributes. FreeBSD version 4.11 will not support this feature. File System Specific Flags for Linux and FreeBSD The Client Agent for Linux and FreeBSD agents support backup and restore of file system specific attributes, (called Flags in FreeBSD). FreeBSD versions 4.11, 5.3 and 5.4 will support this feature. Data Compression for Windows, UNIX, Linux, Mainframe Linux, and Mac OS X The Windows, UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X client agents support the compression of data transmitted through the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network. Compression is the reduction in size of data designed to save space and improve transmission time. When this option is configured, the client agent compresses all data packets before it begins transmission to the backup server. Introducing the Client Agents 13

Agent Features
CRC Verification for Windows and NetWare
The Windows and NetWare client agents generate cyclic redundancy check
(CRC) codes for all the files sent to the BrightStor ARCserve Backup server.
The CRC is used to verify the integrity of the files to be backed up.
Access Control Lists for Windows, UNIX, Linux, Mainframe Linux, and Mac OS X
Access control lists (ACLs) for Windows, UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X client
agents let you control which BrightStor ARCserve Backup server accesses the
workstation through the client agent. The initial configuration setting for these
client agents enables all backup servers to back up and restore data through a
Windows, UNIX, Linux, or Mac OS X client agent. By creating an ACL, you can
restrict data backup and restore operations to a specific group of servers for
the particular client agent.
Note:
The Agent for FreeBSD in OS version 5.3 and 5.4, will backup and
restore ACLs. Both default and access ACLs will be supported. This feature is
not supported in FreeBSD version 4.11.
Extended Attributes for Linux and FreeBSD
The Client Agent for Linux and FreeBSD versions 5.3 and 5.4 will support
backup and restore Extended Attributes. FreeBSD version 4.11 will not support
this feature.
File System Specific Flags for Linux and FreeBSD
The Client Agent for Linux and FreeBSD agents support backup and restore of
file system specific attributes, (called Flags in FreeBSD). FreeBSD versions
4.11, 5.3 and 5.4 will support this feature.
Data Compression for Windows, UNIX, Linux, Mainframe Linux, and Mac OS X
The Windows, UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X client agents support the
compression of data transmitted through the Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network. Compression is the reduction in
size of data designed to save space and improve transmission time. When this
option is configured, the client agent compresses all data packets before it
begins transmission to the backup server.
