Backup 
The 
Backup
 manager
integrated with the ioSafe R4 allows the ioSafe R4 to act as a backup 
appliance.  Backup tasks can be controlled directly from the ioSafe R4 without the need for a client-
based backup application. 
With the flexibility to support full and incremental backups across FTP, HTTP, CIFS/SMB, and 
NFS protocols, the ioSafe R4 can act as a simple central repository for both home and office 
environments.  And with multiple ioSafe R4 systems, you can set up one ioSafe R4 to backup 
another directly. 
Adding a New Backup Job To create a new backup job, click on the 
Add a New Backup Job
 tab.  You will notice a 4-step 
procedure on creating a job.
