Problem

If multiple DLO users share a single client machine, by default the DLO (Desktop and Laptop Option) Client will attempt to run backups when they login, but there may be certain users that you do not wish to allow backups to run for. It is possible to configure the DLO Client on that machine to prevent backups running for certain named users.

Solution

For DLO clients 9.x we can perform a User Machine Mapping which allows you to backup only those users who are mapped to the corresponding machines. 
 
Example: There is User1 mapped to Machine1. If User1 is logged into Machine2. This users backup from Machine2 will not happen. 
 
This can be achieved by going to DLO Server Console | Tools Menu | User Machine Mapping
