Billing Scheduled Backup parameters

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.

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.
