Server Data backup

4

Select the Include Technical Support directory check box, if necessary. Only available if the
Include FTP Root directory check box is clear.

Select the Include Upload Failure Data Capture directory check box, if necessary. Only
available if the Include FTP Root directory check box is clear.

5. Enter the time (using a 24-hour clock) you want the backup process to begin in the Next

Backup Start Time Hours and Minutes fields.

6. Select an interval from the Backup Interval drop-down list to set how often backup occurs.

7. Backup data to a hard drive by browsing to the hard drive and directory to which you want to

backup your data.

NOTE

This requires a hard drive. The drive should not be the same physical drive on which your
Operating System or the Management application is installed.

8. Backup data to a network drive by completing the following steps.

To backup to a network drive, your workstation can be either in the same domain or in the
same workgroup. However, you must have rights to copy files for the network drive.

NOTE

The Management application should not directly access local or network resources through
mapped drive letters. When the Management application must access a remote resource (or
any process that is running in a different security context), you should use the Universal
Naming Convention (UNC) name to access the resource. For more information about services
and redirected drives, refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/180362/en-us.

NOTE

Configuring backup to a network drive is not supported on UNIX systems.

NOTE

It is recommended that this configuration be completed on the Local client (the client
application running on the Server) so that the backup path and location can be confirmed.

a. Browse to the network share and directory to which you want to backup your data.

NOTE

You must specify the directory in a network share format (for example,
\\network-name\share-name\directory). Do not use the drive letter format (C:\directory).

b. (Windows only) Enter the name of the Windows domain or workgroup in which you are

defined in the Domain Workgroup field.

NOTE

You must be authorized to write to the network device.

c. (Windows only) Enter your Windows login name in the User Name field.

d. (Windows only) Enter your Windows password in the Password field.
