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.
4.5 CLIP DATA COLUMNS
The clip information is organized in columns. Some of the details can be edited
from here, others are for viewing only. All the headings can be used as filters
when performing a search.
Note
For details on how to hide or show the columns, see section ’Organizing
Columns in the Element List’ on page 17.
