logical volume operations. The Windows Web client can also back up and restore system objects. For file-based restore operations, both active and inactive files can be restored, and the point-in-time restore function is supported. You may search for specific files in the backup, restore, archive, or retrieve window, by filtering file names or filtering the directory tree. You can restore a backup set without a server connection. The Web client is another client interface, and is used only to perform backup-archive client operations. If used from a Web browser on a remote workstation, with a user ID with client access privilege, no local access to back up or archive data is provided on that remote workstation. Data cannot be restored or retrieved locally; it can only be restored to or retrieved to the client workstation that owns the data. A Web browser can also be used locally on the client workstation to invoke the Web client as an alternative interface to the backup-archive client command-line interface or GUI. Using the Web client via the browser means that you actually do not have to have any Tivoli Storage Manager code on the Web browser workstation, yet you can perform backup, restore, archive, or retrieve operations on behalf of the actual client. 4.8.3 Access authorization Use of the Web client interface is authenticated whenever backup, restore, archive, or retrieve Web client functions are performed. Authentication of the Web client interface is separate, and independent, from authentication between the client node and the server. An administrator user ID is required to use the Web client. This administrator user ID, and associated password, is used to authenticate that the user has sufficient authority to perform remote client functions. Two administrative authorities are provided to enable this authentication: Client owner Client access These authorities can be used to enable usage of the Web client interface for backup-archive client owners and help desk personnel. A user ID with client access privilege can only restore data back to its original system. A user ID with client owner privilege can restore data to another system if required. 182 IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Implementation Guide
