Overview

The SEP sesam graphical user interface (GUI) provides centralized administration and easy access to configuration and management of SEP sesam and its environment. GUI can be customized according to individual needs – you can set up different GUI layouts, change default data size units and filter the displayed contents.

Rearranging GUI layout

The SEP sesam GUI can be rearranged almost without limitation. You can adjust the layout of the GUI window by undocking, repositioning and rescaling the individual panes of the main GUI window, including the toolbars. You can simply drag and drop selected windows and create a custom GUI layout.

Managing layouts

You can save and manage layouts by clicking Window in the menu bar and selecting Manage layouts option.

  1. The first time the GUI is started, the docking functionality is disabled by default. You can activate it by selecting the Docking Mode check box in the Manage layouts window. If the option is deactivated, all window positions are fixed.
  2. Open and arrange all windows and settings to your liking. Once you are satisfied, give the layout a name and save it. The layout identified with a blue arrow is the current layout. By clicking Set as standard the selected layout will become the default layout and will be loaded automatically for the current user the next time the GUI is started.

Changing data size units

You can change the default setting for the data size units, which are specified with either decimal (KB, MB, GB, TB) or binary prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB).

Setting the default data size unit

SEP sesam allows you to choose how your data size should be displayed (e.g, in TiB or TB). In previous SEP sesam versions, the data size was always displayed using decimal units.

  1. Open the GUI and from the menu bar select Configuration then Defaults.
  2. Click the Display Format tab (previously Data displays) and from the drop-down list Default data size select decimal or binary prefix.

Setting a different data size unit for the individual table

It is possible to change the data size units for each individual table, for example, in the context window Backups, Restores, Last Backup State, etc. This setting is only applied to the displayed data size in the individual table and is reset to the default data size when the user interface is closed.

  1. Open the target context window, e.g., Main Selection -> Job State-> Backups, select the Data Size column header and right-click it.
  2. From the Unit menu, select the preferred decimal or binary unit display.
