View Backup History Log
The administrator can view a history log of past scheduled backups to
make sure that the backups have taken place as scheduled. The
Backup History Log window is a view-only window and shows each
backup attempt as one line: time stamp (dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss) and
message. The message shows the type of backup (automatic or
manual), destination, and success or failure. The events appear with
the most recent backup on the top of the list.
View Last Backup Details
The Last Backup Details view-only window prints out the details of the
last backup attempt (either scheduled or manual). This is the same text
that appears on the CLI during a backup.
Restore
Use Procedure 40 on page 193 to restore the database from the
secondary PCMCIA device.

Section Description
Schedule Click on an radio button to define the backup schedule as follows:
•Daily – every day at the hour specified.
•Weekly – once a week on the specified day, at the specified hour.
•Monthly – once a month on the specified day (1-28), at the specified
hour.
•Never – the system does not perform an automatic backup (the
default).
The hour section is to the round hour (that is, hh:00), AM or PM.
Destination Click on an radio button to define the backup destination as follows:
• The secondary PCMCIA device, inserted in the upper slot of the ICB
card (the default).
• An E-mail destination. The system compresses the backup files,
before sending them. The administrator defines the Administrator’s
E-mail address in the General Setting window (see Figure 57 on page
114).
• A remote FTP server. The parameters for the FTP session must be
defined, as shown in the boxes below the FTP radio button. The
system compresses the files, before transferring them. The system
names the ZIP file according to date, so that it does not overwrite
previous backups.
