NetWorker command:      nwarchive

NAME

       nwarchive - NetWorker graphical archive interface

SYNOPSIS

       nwarchive [ -s server ]

DESCRIPTION

       nwarchive  is  an  X  Window  System application.  It is a front end to
       nsrarchive(1) and used to archive files to a NetWorker server on an  ad
       hoc basis.  Normally, files are archived automatically.

       The  server's  name may be specified with the -s server argument.  When
       no server is specified, nwarchive uses the server selection rules found
       in nsr(1).  When multiple NetWorker servers are accessible, they may be
       selected from within the nwarchive command.

       NetWorker supports both  scheduled  network-wide  archives  and  manual
       archives  of client system files and directories. To request an immedi-
       ate manual archive, run nwarchive

       Check that the correct NetWorker server  is  selected.  The  Server  is
       identified in the Main window. (You can change servers using the Change
       Server command if necessary.) This is the Server to  which  the  client
       files  will  be  backed  up. The hostname of the current client is dis-
       played in the Client field. The pathname of the  current  directory  is
       displayed in the Selection field.

       Change directories by entering the full pathname in the Selection field
       or by highlighting the icon in the Archive window.

       To perform a manual archive, first mark the files and directories  that
       you  want  to  back up by selecting their checkboxes. Then select Start
       archive... from the File menu of the Archive window. You must enter  an
       annotation for the archive.

       Monitor  the  progress  of  the  archive  in the Archive Status window.
       Check to see that an archive volume is mounted in the  Pending  display
       of the Main window.

       A  complete  explanation  of  the nwarchive command may be found in the
       NetWorker Administrator's Guide, UNIX Version.
