Organization Management
How do I manage the UTBackup service for my department?
TSCs can remotely administer UTBackup clients and devices through control of a nested, hierarchical grouping of parent and child organizations.
Remote management is handled via a web-based administrative console (https://utbackup.its.utexas.edu)

backup status reports and alerts based on settings
