Creating a Local System Backup

It’s possible to setup a backup job to perform a System Backup of a client to its own locally-attached tape
drive. You must have previously configured a

Tape for Local System Backup

for the client before

configuring a local System Backup Job.

To create a

Local System Backup, select

Configure->Backup Jobs

. Enter a name in the

Job ID field, then

choose “

local (client tape)” from the Server Name field.


After choosing “

local (client tape)” you will

Configure the Backup Job

as usual, with the following

exceptions:

1. Only

System Backup profiles will be available for selection.

2. You may select only one client since the backup will be sent from the client to its own local media.

3. Only a device named

SBTAPE (backup to local tape) will be available, and only if previously

configured.

Refer to

Tape for Local System Backup

in the

Client Configuration

for more details on configuring local

system backup media.

Changing a Backup Job

To change information for an existing backup job, either:

1. Select

Configure

!Backup Jobs

from the menu bar, then type or select the

Job ID at the top of the

screen.
