Validation (DS-System Initiated)
Summary
The Validation Process is meant to verify there are no corruptions / inconsistencies that result in files not being restorable. It has some fixing capability, but it is not primarily designed to do fixing (which is what Autonomic Healing does).
Whenever you (the service provider) want to confirm the online storage is restorable, you can run the Validation Process (DS-System Initiated). If the Validation Process finds no problem, you can be sure the online storage is restorable.
Details
This is generally the same process as the one initiated from the DS-Client side (see "Validation Overview"), however the following requirements must be met:
- DS-Client key forwarding must be enabled, and the key(s) must be forwarded to DS-System.
- Note: For instructions on configuring DS-Clients to forward their encryption keys, see "Encryption Keys Tab" ("DS-System Configuration").
- At backup set level only, (on demand) via DS-Operator.
- Can validate latest generation of the backup set's files, or all generations of the backup set's files.
- Multi-threaded option
- Most of the "Checking capabilities" and "Fixing capabilities" are the same as those described in the table: "Comparison between the Validation Process Features (Core Component) and the Autonomic Healing Tool Features"
