Protecting Local Disks Removing Protection If you no longer want to back up a particular disk or partition, you can remove protection as long as a recovery is not currently in progress for that disk or partition. If a recovery is in progress, you must cancel it or wait until it completes before you can remove protection. Note: If you plan to delete a protected partition, you must remove protection before you delete that partition. Otherwise, you might not be able to protect other partitions on that disk. When you remove protection for a disk for which remote boot is enabled, remote boot is disabled and your computer restarts. When you remove protection, you can no longer back up the selected disk or partition either automatically or manually, and you cannot recover data using Client Backup and Recovery as described in "Recovering Files or Folders" on page 114 and "Recovering a Data Disk" on page 116. However, the backups that currently exist on the storage system are retained, and you can recover them using the recovery CD as described in "Recovering a System Disk Using the Recovery CD" on page 117. If you subsequently want to protect the same disk or partition again, you can re-use the existing backups. You can also delete the existing backups on the storage system to free up space for backups of other disks or partitions, either for this computer or other computers. For more information, see "Deleting a Backup" on page 60 the documentation for your storage system. To remove protection: 1. In the Protected disk list on any page, select the disk for which you want to remove protection. 2. From the Action menu, click Remove Protection. 3. Click Yes at the confirmation message. The disk disappears from the Protected disk list. If another disk is protected, that disk displays in the Protected disk list, and information about that disk displays in the application window. If no other disk is protected, click OK on the informational message; the Protected disk list and application window are blank. 4. If remote boot was enabled, it is disabled. When prompted, click OK to restart your computer. 126 Intel® Entry Storage System SS4000-E User Guide

Removing Protection
If you no longer want to back up a particular disk or partition, you can remove protection
as long as a recovery is not currently in progress for that disk or partition. If a recovery is
in progress, you must cancel it or wait until it completes before you can remove
protection.
Note:
If you plan to delete a protected partition, you must remove protection before you delete
that partition. Otherwise, you might not be able to protect other partitions on that disk.
When you remove protection for a disk for which remote boot is enabled, remote boot is
disabled and your computer restarts.
When you remove protection, you can no longer back up the selected disk or partition
either automatically or manually, and you cannot recover data using Client Backup and
Recovery as described in
“Recovering Files or Folders” on page 114
and
“Recovering a
Data Disk” on page 116
. However, the backups that currently exist on the storage system
are retained, and you can recover them using the recovery CD as described in
“Recovering
a System Disk Using the Recovery CD” on page 117
.
If you subsequently want to protect the same disk or partition again, you can re-use the
existing backups. You can also delete the existing backups on the storage system to free
up space for backups of other disks or partitions, either for this computer or other
computers. For more information, see
“Deleting a Backup” on page 60
the documentation
for your storage system.
To remove protection:
1.
In the
Protected disk
list on any page, select the disk for which you want to remove
protection.
2.
From the
Action
menu, click
Remove Protection
.
3. Click
Yes
at the confirmation message.
The disk disappears from the
Protected disk
list. If another disk is protected, that disk
displays in the
Protected disk
list, and information about that disk displays in the
application window. If no other disk is protected, click
OK
on the informational
message; the
Protected disk
list and application window are blank.
4.
If remote boot was enabled, it is disabled. When prompted, click
OK
to restart your
computer.
