Selection Panes

Selecting data for backup or restore in GBM is done using a Windows-Explorer-like interface. Selection panes are used to select or deselect files, folders, and various items and settings.

When an item from the left pane is highlighted its contents will be displayed in the right pane, to refine the selection if necessary.

A plus sign means that the listing can be expanded to display additional items.

A minus sign means that the listing can be collapsed to hide displayed items beneath it.

An empty check box means that the item can be selected but is currently not.

A check box with a blue or green check mark means that the item is selected with all its contents.

A gray check mark means that some but not all of the item's contents have been selected.

A grayed out check box means that the item is not available or not selectable; if the item has an Expand/Collapse box then the user needs to expand the listing to be able to select its contents.
