The Archive Server Properties page displays the basic management information that applies to all jobs controlled by the selected archive server. The general server properties specify the storage location where the archive data (file versions) reside and whether to display the log using iManager at Archive Versioning > Archive Jobs> Log tab.
To manage the archive server’s properties:
In iManager, expand Archive Versioning, select Archive Server Properties, then click Properties.
Select the archive server you want to manage, then wait for the page to refresh.
For information, see Section 7.2, Configuring Archive Volume.
On the Server Properties page, set the following server properties for the archive server:

Volume Path |
Specifies the path to the volume on the archive server where the file versions are stored for retrieval by users. The directory can be the root of the volume or any other directory in the volume. For example, on OES 11SP3, a Novell Storage Services volume path might be Ark:/archive. If you are setting up a clustered solution for the archive server using Novell Cluster Services, make sure to specify the volume and path to the virtual storage location. NOTE:The Archive volume name must always be in uppercase. |

Display server Archive Log entries |
By default, the archive server records the error, warning, and normal messages for all of its jobs in the Archive Log which is available in the /var/opt/novell/log/arkManager folder. In iManager if the Display server Archive Log entries option is selected, the log messages are displayed at Archive Versioning > Archive Jobs > Log tab. This is the default setting If Display Archive Log Entries is deselected, the archive server does not print messages to the Log tab, but the messages are recorded in the log file. For information, see Section 8.5, Viewing the Archive Log. |
