This filter is only for files on NetWare servers and Windows clients, and is only available if you have purchased the appropriate agent software.
Follow the procedure below to filter files based on their file attributes:
The File Attributes dialog box appears:
If you select Include, only files whose attributes match the ones that you specify will be backed up or restored.
If you select Exclude, all files will be backed up or restored EXCEPT for those whose attributes match what you specify.
There are four types of file attributes you can choose from. Select as many file types as you want.
SCO ARCserve/Open will only back up or restore the files that match the requirements that you specify.
For example, if you want to run a back up job that includes hidden files and system files, you would have to place two File Attributes filters on the job: one with Include and System Files selected and another with Include and Hidden Files selected. If you placed only one File Attributes filter on the job with Include, Hidden Files, and System Files all selected, SCO ARCserve/Open would only back up hidden system files, not hidden files and system files.
