Creating a data backup task

Backup tasks are Administration Server tasks; they are created through the quick start wizard. If a backup task created by the quick start wizard has been deleted, you can create one manually.

To create an Administration Server data backup task:

1. In the main menu, go to Assets (Devices) → Tasks.
2. Click the Add button.

   The New task wizard starts.

3. In the New task settings window of the wizard, select the task type named Backup of Administration Server data.
4. Follow the rest of the wizard instructions.

The Backup of Administration Server data task can only be created in a single copy. If the Administration Server data backup task has already been created for the Administration Server, it is not displayed in the task type selection window of the Administration Server backup task creation wizard.

To configure the Backup of Administration Server data task:

1. In the main menu, go to Assets (Devices) → Tasks, and then select the Backup of Administration Server data task.
2. Click the Backup of Administration Server data task.

   The task properties window opens.

3. If necessary, specify the general task settings according to your needs.
4. In the Application settings section, specify the path to the folder for storage backup copies of Administration Server data, set the backup protection password, and number of backup copies if needed.
5. Click Save to apply changes.

The Backup of Administration Server data task is configured.
