Applying filters - the basic steps
For backup jobs, filters can be applied on a per host basis. For restore jobs, filters can only be applied on a per job basis. Therefore, you cannot set up different filters for each host or tape session (depending upon your view).
In addition, if you switch between views on the Restore Manager window, any existing filters will be lost.
Following are the basic steps for applying filters:
- Place the cursor over the node you want to filter.
- Click the right mouse button.
- Select Filter Options.
The New Filters window will appear. In it, you will specify all your filtering requirements.

- In the New Filters window, click the button for the type of filter you want to specify.

- Specify the filtering information for the job.
Refer to the sections that follow in this chapter for information about the various filters.
- Click OK when you are done.
