Backup / Restore Job

)LOH %DFNXS  5HVWRUH



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.

All of the backups for a particular job are physically stored to a single
compressed file located in the

\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

.
