XF[2] or XStore hosting XFile software: displays clips which have been

backed up to XFile and then published from XFile to the XNet.

Note
Even if an XT clip is backed up to XFile in a file format, when the
file is published from XFile, it appears with a ‘clip’ icon

in the

Database Explorer grid.

Each machine can be searched by browsing the tree from network number >

page > bank.

On-line nearline: displays clips which have been backed up to nearline/IP drive

and for which the IP drive is still managing the disks, so clips can still be
immediately retrievable.

Off-line nearline: displays clips which have been backed up to nearline/IP drive

and for which the IP drive has been removed. So, IP drive identification allows
clips to be retrieved after re-inserting the drive.
