cancel the operation.

When I select the Check

All box and then deselect

one or more choices on

some screens in the NAS

Manager, the Check All

box remains selected.

The Check All box is not

automatically deselected. However,

this does not mean that all items in

the list are selected.

This behavior does not affect functionality. The Check

All box does not indicate what has specifically been

selected or deselected.

I have changed the

password for the

administrator account;

however, several minutes

have passed and I have

not been queried for the

new password.

The NAS Manager does not

automatically refresh the account

information for the administrator

while in the NAS Manager. Instead,

it performs the refresh as a timed

function.

The password was successfully changed. If you want to

confirm that the new password is in effect, close the

browser, and then reconnect. The new password should

work, but the old one should not.

I am looking for a topic on

the context-sensitive online

help in the NAS Manager,

but it says No Topic
Available

.

Some sections of the NAS Manager

do not have context-sensitive help.

For information on a specific function, see the Windows

Powered Help, which is available through Terminal

Services by clicking Windows Powered Help on the

Advanced Administration Menu, or see the appropriate

section in this Administrator's Guide.

I tried to clear the FTP log

or the Web (HTTP) Shares

log in the Maintenance

section of the NAS

Manager, but I received an

error message and the log

was not cleared.

The logs are currently locked by the

NAS system for the FTP service and

to support the NAS Manager. The

logs cannot be cleared in the NAS

Manager.

Connect to the NAS system using Terminal Services and

clear these logs by using MMC. You can access MMC by

clicking Computer Management on the Advanced

Administration Menu, which is available through Terminal

Services.

While viewing the

properties of a user, I

selected the General tab.

The fields for this user are

now all blank.

You were already on the General

tab and the page did not refresh

properly.

Select Cancel or click Back on your browser. Then

reselect the user for whom you wanted to view

properties.

I added members to a local

group using the NAS

Manager, but when I click

OK, the screen only

refreshes.

You might have removed and then

added the same member to the

local group. This may cause the

screen to refresh instead of update

correctly.

Reselect the Local Groups tab in the NAS Manager

primary menu. Then add or remove the appropriate

members to or from the local group.

I cannot change the WINS

addresses when I click

Network on the NAS

Manager primary menu,

click Network Interfaces,

and then click WINS in the

Tasks list.

The NAS Manager grays out the

WINS Servers Configuration

page unless you set the IP

Address Configuration page to

Use the following IP settings.

To set the WINS addresses from the NAS Manager, click

Network on the primary menu, click Interfaces, and

click IP in the Tasks list. On the IP Address

Configuration page, click the radio button for Use the

following IP settings, and then type the IP address,

Subnet mask, and the default gateway in the appropriate

text boxes.

Table 9-3. Dell ActiveArchive™

Issue

Possible cause

Resolution

I cannot access my Dell

ActiveArchive persistent

images from a UNIX®

Network File System (NFS) or

Macintosh client.

Only Microsoft Windows (CIFS) clients can access the

persistent images stored in the ActiveArchive folders for

each volume.

Access the ActiveArchive

folders through the

Windows client to perform

data recovery.

The XCOPY command does

not copy my persistent

images.

XCOPY cannot read the persistent images on a volume.

Do not use XCOPY to copy

persistent images. Copy

the files manually in

Windows Explorer.

After I take a new persistent

image, the definition of the

persistent image is blank, or

The NAS Manager must complete a refresh cycle before it can

correctly show the persistent image.

If this is the first persistent

image, wait several

minutes and check again.
