Creation Time—The date and time the file was initially created.
Last Modified Time—The date and time the file was last written.
5. If desired, enter a URL for a Hostname Override to use instead of a hostname lookup in HTML links created to replace migrated / stored files.
Note: You must restart the StorCycle service before a new Hostname Override becomes active. See Start, Stop, and Restart the Services.
6. Select whether HTML links should be removed when files are restored to the same directory from which a migrate / store with the option to replace files with HTML links was done.
7. In the Session Timeout field, use the arrows to enter how long the current login to the Spectra StorCycle user interface can remain active. The default is eight hours and the maximum is 99 hours.
