This may be High or Low.
Primary (Default)
Transfer Policy
•
High means all data is sent from the media server and deduplicated on the HP StoreOnce
Backup system. This can also be described as target-side deduplication.
•
Low means that the media server deduplicates the data and sends only unique data. This
can also be described as source-side deduplication.
The primary transfer policy is the default transfer policy for the server. Each media server may
be configured individually to use the most efficient transfer policy. As long as the two transfer
policies have different values, the media server will determine which is the most bandwidth
efficient transfer policy to use.
This may be High or Low (see definitions in row above) and is normally the opposite to the
Primary transfer policy so that the media server can choose to use which is most appropriate.
Secondary Transfer
Policy
However, if you wish to enforce the transfer policy that the media server uses, set both Primary
and Secondary transfer policies to the same value.
This quota allows you to set the physical quota when you are looking to partition the physical
capacity of the appliance between the various users. This way users who get a better dedupe
ratio will be able to store more data.
Physical Data Size
Quota (Size on Disk
Quota)
NOTE:
If you use this feature in conjunction with Client-Permissions to control a client’s access
to the store, you can effectively define how much user data a particular user is allowed to store
on the HP StoreOnce Backup system. This may be useful with many users using the same system
and you wish to control how much disk space is available to individual users.
NOTE:
If quota limits are enabled and the quota limit is reached, backups will fail to prevent
the quota from being exceeded. If capacity management is required, HP recommends
configuring backup applications with quotas where applicable to reroute to another device or
postponed backups to prevent backups from failing unexpectedly.
This quota allows you to set the logical quota when you are providing a service to back up a
particular amount of user data. For example, you might want to set this when you internally
charge customers per TB of user data protected.

When creating a new Catalyst store, check this box to enable data encryption. Encryption
cannot be enabled after a store is created; it must be enabled at store creation. Also, encryption
Store Encryption
Enabled
cannot be disabled once it has been set for a store. If enabled, encryption will be performed
prior to writing data to disk for this store.
Once the library is created and the correct license is applied, the Secure Erase Mode box
appears on the Store Details tab. The selection box defaults to None, meaning Secure Erase
