Configure preferences
These Manager Web Interface global settings can be changed and are seen by all users.
| Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Time Zone | Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) | The drop-down allows a different time zone to be selected. Time zones for
individual accounts can be set on the Security
tab. Note: The backup schedule uses this time zone.
|
| Device Display | Alias | This setting applies only to the UI. All files that are exported have both host names and alias fields. |
| Display Name | Text value is displayed in the upper right corner of the Manager Web Interface. | |
| Storage Units | SI units | In SI units, 1,000 Bytes equal 1 KB. Can be changed to IEC units where 1,024 Bytes equal one kibibyte. |
| Session Timeout | 30 minutes | The drop-down allows range 5 minutes from 8 hours. |
| Automatic Logout | Disabled |
When Automatic Logout is enabled, a pop-up window appears when the session is about a minute from expiring and gives the user the option to continue the session or to log out. Pages in the Monitor tab do not reload every 5 minutes. When Automatic Logout is disabled, pages in the Monitor tab will reload every five minutes. Note: When Automatic Logout is enabled, avoid opening the Manager Web Interface in more than one browser tab.
Because the focused tab uses more processing power than unfocused tabs, the
countdown to session timeout can differ by a few seconds between tabs.
