Backing up your Server - Scheduled
Scheduling a backup to run at a different time or on specific days is simple. First, click the Backup icon or select
Create Backup from the Backup menu.
Selecting the Backup Drives
All drives available for backup will be listed on the left of the screen in the Source Box, under the heading Available
Items For Backup.
Select each item to be backed up by highlighting the drive and clicking the ADD button, right click and select ADD
from the drop down menu or Drag and Drop the item into the Items Selected for Backup window. The selection will
move into the Items Selected For Backup box. You may add as many drives as you like to the backup set. You may
remove drives from the selected backup following this same process.
Note: Even though the display image shows partitions and volumes, the selection is for complete hard drives.
SnapBack saves entire drive images.
Select the Backup Destination
Click on the Destination tab to view all tape devices attached to the system. To select a destination device, highlight
the device in the Available Tape Drives box and click the ADD button, or right click the item and select ADD from
the drop down menu. If you only have one backup device SnapBack will automatically select it.
If you have more than one tape device, you can select a single device or Cascade from one drive to another. To
Cascade, select the tape drives in the order you wish to use them. To Span or Cascade, you must enable the setting in
the Configuration Menu .
Click Backup Later to select the days and times for backup.
Selecting Days and Times
The scheduling screen allows entry of the days of the week and times for the selected backup. The backup source,
targets, and schedule are collectively termed a "backup set".
SnapBack allows scheduling of the backup for any day of the week at any time of the day. You can schedule a backup
for every Monday at 5:30 PM, every Monday and Wednesday at 3:30 PM, or any combination of days and times.
To schedule a routine backup, click the day(s) and the time of day you would like a server backed up. Highlight any
selection, such as hour, minute, or AM/PM, and type in a new value or click the up and down arrows to increase or
decrease the displayed value.
When you click OK, the schedule will be stored on the server and the backup executed as scheduled.
