Use options on the Removable Media tab
to set default values for segment size when creating Archive Files,
whether or not using a Storage Profile Definition, and Extract Files.
When an Archive or Extract File is larger than the space limitation
for the target media, the file must be segmented to span more than
one volume.
Default Segment Sizes (MB)
- Fixed
- Enter the segment size (0 - 9999
MB) to use when the target destination is a fixed drive (that is,
hard disk). To specify no limit, enter a value of 0 (zero).
Notes: - This value also applies to Archive Files copied
to a backup device, because Archive Files are created on disk before
being copied to a backup device.
- The maximum segment size when the target is a Centera
Server is 2 GB.
- Removable
- Enter the segment size (1 - 9999 MB) to use when
the target destination is a removable device (e.g., zip drive).
Note: The
naming convention for a segmented file is:
filename_1.
ext,
filename_2.
ext,
(...
filename_
n.
ext),
filename.
ext.
The name of the last segment is the file name specified in the process
request. For example, when creating an Archive File named c:\arch\archtest.af
that requires three segments, the segments are named as follows:
c:\arch\archtest_1.af (segment 1)
c:\arch\archtest_2.af (segment 2)
c:\arch\archtest.af (segment 3)
