How to Configure Global Releasing Values

If you are managing a server that has the Sun SAM package installed locally, you can configure global releasing values for all archiving file systems on the current server. Releasing is the process of freeing primary (disk) storage that is used by an archived file’s data. Files are selected for release according to criteria such as age.

When you configure global releasing values, the releaser.cmd file is updated.

  1. From the Manage Hosts menu or the Managed Hosts page, choose the name of the server that has the releaser you want to deliver.
  2. From the navigation tree, choose Global Parameters under Archive Administration.

    The Global Parameters page is displayed.

  3. Edit the releaser-specific fields that you want to change, and click Save.

    For information about the fields, see Global Parameters Page.
