Preventing Accidental Deletion of a Mount Path

You can protect your mount path contents from being deleted accidentally from outside of the CommCell Console. Contents on mount paths that are created when this option is selected are protected from accidental deletion. This option is selected by default. This option applies to mount paths that are created on NTFS and ReFS volumes.

Do not enable this option when:

  • The mount path(s) in the library are hosted on WORM hardware that has options to control and prevent accidental deletions, such as SmartLock in Isilon, or

  • The Mark Archive files as Read-Only option is selected in the General tab of Library Properties dialog box.

This option is not supported for libraries that are attached to Hitachi NAS (BlueArc) NAS NDMP file servers, Hitachi NAS storage array, and Data Domain storage systems.

Procedure

  1. From the CommCell Browser, expand to Storage Resources | Libraries.

  2. Right-click the appropriate library, and then click Properties.

  3. Click the Mount Paths tab.

  4. Select the Prevent accidental deletion of data from mountpaths check box to protect the contents. (Clear the check box to leave the contents unprotected.)

  5. Click OK.
