4- RAID Manager Software
3.4 Button Backup
The Micronet RAIDBank5 RAID subsystem supports user triggered backup, triggered by the “Set/ Mute/Backup” button on the back of the unit (see page 9 for button location illustration.) Once configured, the button will trigger the configured task.
Your RAIDBank5 may arrive with bundled backup software. If you’d like to use the button to trigger this software (or another program of your choosing) make sure it is installed before configuring the button task. In the button
configuration screen, enter the program filename including full path (you may use the button to locate the program) and the command line arguments as applicable in the “Program Arguments” field.
PCClone EX utilizes a simple syntax for command line arguments. The argument “/filesbackup:X” (where “X” is the drive letter of the target drive) will launch a backup to the specified target volume.
