Backup

Using Backup Options

Open Files (Windows-Specific Option)

This option controls what Data Protector does when it encounters open Windows files. If the Number of retries value is specified, this number defines how many times Data Protector tries to back up an open or busy file. The Time out value is the amount of time in seconds during which Data Protector waits before retrying to back up an open or busy file.

Protection (Data Protection)

This option enables you to set the protection level for backed up data. In this way, you prevent the backup media from being overwritten for the specified period. The Protection values are None, Until, Days, Weeks, and Permanent.

The default value is Permanent.

Public/Private

This option lets you set the access rights for restoring data that you back up. If a filesystem is backed up with the Private setting, it can be restored only by you or users who are part of the Data Protector Admin group.

Setting the value to Public lets anyone with the Start Restore user right restore the data.

The default value is Private.

Report Level

This option defines the level of errors that are reported during a backup session. Setting a level means errors of this level and higher are reported. You can choose from Warning, Minor, Major, and Critical report level.

For example, when the value Minor is set, all errors graded as Minor, Major, and Critical are reported in the Messages field. Messages keyed as Normal always appear in the Messages field. The default value is Warning.

NOTE

The number of messages per backup system stored in the IDB is limited

 

to 3000.
