Backup / Restore Job
File Backup / Restore .
The Backup / Restore wizard is a series of
screens that are used to backup or restore all
the files associated with the current job.
The routine also gives you the option of storing
a snapshot of a customized map view to the
archive. This can then be used to visually
identify an archive.
Any number of backups can be created for a
particular job. All the existing backups for the
current job are listed in the main Backup /
Restore screen, along with other information
including the date the backup was created, the number of files stored
in the archive and if the archive includes a snapshot. Archives that
include a snapshot are shown with a icon, while those without a
snapshot have a icon. The icon is used when a new archive has
been created, but a backup has not yet been stored to it.
All of the backups for a particular job are physically stored to a single
compressed file located in the \Built-in Storage\Survey Pro Jobs
directory on the data collector. This file will have the same filename
as the current job, only the *.Backup extension is appended to the
name. For example, the backups for a job with a filename of
Smith.Job
will be stored in a file called Smith.Job.Backup.
New Archive… : opens the New Archive dialog box where a name is
entered for the new backup archive being created. Once created, an
empty archive will be listed in the main Backup / Restore screen,
which can then be selected to backup the current job.
Delete Archive… : opens a prompt asking if you are sure. If you select
Yes
at the prompt, the archive selected from the main Backup /
Restore screen will be deleted.
