This table is typically used by Unicenter Asset Management. It describes the client backup files, which have been setup to be backed up in the database. The Asset Management system can keep a history of changes of a backup file from the Agents. Each backup file you wish to keep a history of must be defined in this table. A backup file is identified by the full filename. It must be a text file. One Backup definition is stored in a single entry. If a backup file is to be collected from multiple paths on the Agent, several entries must be written. Each definition is defined by the unique DOMAINID and BCKID fields. This table also defines how many files to keep in the history. The number of files to keep is defined in the VERSION field. The file to collect on the Agent is defined in the FILENAME field. Though only 127 characters are available it must be a fully qualified path and filename. You can associate an editor with a backup file (the EDITOR field). When double clicking a file in the Admin Console this file viewer will be used rather that the build-in text viewer dialog. Backup files can be grouped. This allows the Admin Console to display similar files in an orderly fashion. Backup files are grouped by setting the DBNAME field. The actual contents of the collected backup files are stored in the BCKFILE table.
