MediaAgent - Additional Operations

Option	Description
Log Files	View Log You can view the log files generated by a MediaAgent. The files that reside on a given computer may differ depending on the role of the computer in the CommCell (CommServe, MediaAgent, Client). A CommServe computer contains only the CommServe log files. A computer that is both a CommServe and a MediaAgent contains the log files of both entities. Send log You can send the log files either from the CommCell Console, or from the Command line to email recipients as mails, or to a remote computer. You can also upload the log files to any existing FTP server.
Install Updates	This option allows you to install updates from the CommServe cache or a designated software cache on a remote client if multi-cache configuration is set up for use.
MediaAgent Alerts	Alerts allow you to set e-mail notifications to MediaAgent related events.

Network Throttling	The network traffic for MediaAgents can be throttled based on the network bandwidth in your environment. This is useful to regulate network traffic and minimize bandwidth congestion. By default, network throttling is disabled. You can enable the throttling options for a MediaAgent. Once configured, the throttling options are applied to all data transfer and control message operations, such as Backup operations, Copy operations including DASH copy, Restore operations, etc.
