Windows Client Agent Configuration You can define the following settings using the Configuration dialog: ■ Security Type Specification--Select one of the following types of security: System Security--Select this Security option to use Windows security to perform backup, compare, and restore operations. The client agent impersonates the active network user; that is, the client agent uses the user name and password to log on. This ID and password should identify a valid user in the local user database or in the domain database if the workstation is a member of a domain. Note: If you select System Security, Exchange Server 2010 database files are not backed up (that is, they are skipped) when you use the client agent to select partitions, folders or files for backup when the client agent backup account is a domain account with View Only Organization Management role or higher privileges. Exchanger Server 2010 database files are not skipped if you select Password Security, or if you use some other account role, such as local administrator or domain account without View-only Organization Management privileges. The system displays a warning when these database files are in use. Password Security--Select this Security option to set an individual password for security. This setting enables the client agent to run under the local system account. Password Security is disabled by default. ■ Setting Process Priority--These settings determine the priority given to the processes needed for the backup, restore, or compare operations. Select one of the following settings for Backup Priority and Restore/Compare Priority: High--Foreground processing performs client agent functions before other processes. Normal--Standard processing performs client agent functions without special status. Low--Standard processing performs client agent functions when other processes are idle. ■ Allow multiple simultaneous restore or compare jobs--Enable this if you want the Windows client agent to accept multiple concurrent restore or compare jobs. Note: By default, this option is disabled to ensure that new backup or restore jobs of the same data set are not accidentally launched during a running restore job. If this does occur, the agent denies the new job's request and reports that the client agent is busy to the CA ARCserve Backup server. ■ Enable physical disk/volume backup and restore--Lets you perform raw backups and restores on physical disks and volumes.
