Archive management classes

The backup-archive client checks the include options in your include-exclude options list to determine which management class to assign to your archived files.

If you do not assign a management class to a file with the include option, the client assigns the default management class to the file. The client can archive only a file if the selected management class contains an archive copy group.

You can override the default management class by using the archmc option, or by clicking Options in the Archive window in the GUI, clicking Override include/exclude list, and then selecting the management class.

You can also add include-exclude statements in the backup-archive client Java™ GUI or web client directory tree. Then, you can use the Utilities Preview Include-Exclude function to preview the include-exclude list before you send data to the server.
