Question

Special functions using "CTRL" key

Hello everyone,
I have been looking for some options that are activated only when the "CTRL" key is used simultaneously. In a quick search on the user guide for VMware, I found 22 occurrences, but not all occurrences activate specific functions. Does anyone have a list of all the additional functions activated when using the "CTRL" key?

 

The rebalance option is available only when the “CTRL” key is used with right click pressed at the same time.

Hi Andre - I don’t have a list myself, but am very interested in seeing what’s posted. The only one I was aware of was the Remove From Configuration option in the Home > Disk section.

Best.

Like Shane I don't have a list but know you can use it to run SOBR offload as well as another option.  Hopefully the community will post here to get a list going.

It seems like most of my interactions with CTRL revolve around repositories.  Rebalance, Delete from Disk, Start Tiering job, etc.

Delete from disk doesn‘t require pressing CTRL. Only Remove from configuration :)

That might be it.  It was a weird one that I had where I had restore points stored in VCC storage and they were encrypted but we didn’t have the correct encryption password so I wasn’t able to delete.  Eventually I figured out I could browse into them via the Files tab and delete them there.  Anyhow, neither here nor there...

This option is amazing to re balance SOBR.

Is there any CTRL functions for VeeamONE as well? the only one I saw was rebalance SOBR, because they don’t want everyone clicking that by accident :>
